Im a 5'8" bloke with woman like proportions (longer legs/shorter torso and arms).
Ive been really struggling with a 54cm top tube frame with 700c. It feels like I need a much less long bike.
Am I mad to think that a 43cm fuji track with 650c wheels could potentially be an excellent fit? The effective top tube is apparently 50cm. To me 51 is what I would guess is ideal. But Ive never seen a that kind of short frame with 700c wheels. It would cause front wheel toe overlap etc. Plus im short of dorrar and Fuji Track 650c are only £250 new on ebay delivered.
