Hi.

Do any of you guys have a Dodici Special in 59cm??

I'm about to order one, but the ones I've seen in white seems to have an odd geometry in that size. I was wondering if it was the color that made them look so, or the larger sizes.

Here's an example of a white 61cm: http://www.pedalroom.com/bike/dodici-special-x-valp-1589
And this: http://deafpigeon.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/5441674056_955444c493_b-700x468.jpg (don't know the size)

Comparede to this geometry: http://www.pedalroom.com/bike/dodici-special-2574

Is it just me, or is the geometries completely different?

that's the official geometry chart:

first two bikes are way bigger than the last one

2 smallest sizes show the limitations of traditional horizontal top tube designs - very long top tubes requiring steep seat angles and a very short stem.

Pm jackiespanner.....he has a large sized one. I'm sure they do some sort of custom geometry......?

Anyways, he loves his!

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
