I feel I need to shout here, SMALL POMPS ARE FOR TINY PEOPLE!
I'm 175cm with 31' inseem and normal length arms and feel very very upright on my medium pomp that I use for polo. I have a large one for commuting with an inline seatpost and 100mm stem and still feel like I'd be ok moving the saddle back or using a layback seatpost.
This is my medium (52cm cus its old) pomp set up for polo which puts me in a MUCH more upright position than what I'd use for commuting or cyclocross. Its a super short stem in the pic but even with my newer 80mm one I still feel quite upright. The saddle can't go back any further.
I think the size chart on the on-one website is pretty off. Their recommended max height for the 51cm medium is 178cm, there's no way I'd be comfortable riding on the road on one no matter what the setup!
