Greetings from a frozen yank from across the pond!
I am thinking about getting a pompino as a commuter/bar bike/beater. One thing that concerns me is that in all the pictures I see, everyone has their seatposts jacked up 2 feet. I am 5'8" with a 30cm inseam, so I would probably take a medium, but I have somewhat of a bad low back, and can't really ride in "racer mode" any more. Do the frames all have really low top tubes, do all you brits have tarantula legs?
