how can you comment on the "tightness" of the geometry without knowing the actual angles?
it's probably a bit big. 21.5 is 54.5 cm, which would be more suited to someone around 5'9"
but it does have biopace rings, get it purely for dem!
having checked inches ...yes it probably is too big, metric fail.
Secondly you can tell it's not a 'terrible' frame by merely observing the gap the back wheel has...it's fairly tight, which as you know means it will be livelier than some nasty gate that some of the foffa's were ...though I am sure you know this.
though I said that already, are you going to try and be helpful to the guy or follow me around the threads taking umbrage with everything I type?
oh...and read the damned post. I said the cranks..ie not the chainrings...are reasonable, ie...he can polish of the adonising and have a reaonable crank...spending...no money.
Unless you have something useful to contribute I suggest you stop acting like a child, and shut up.
