I looked at it and thought the same thing. He's just measured the length of the seat-tube, without taking into account the sloping top tube etc etc.

It's still a small frame with only 52cm TT length.

Serious?!!!

FFS - I wanted a 52...

The Kona's have a seat tube c-t 2" less than the actual size.

The effective top tube on the 52 is 53.5 though.

Who bought it - anyone here?

Don't believe this.

I've not bought it!

The seat tube measurement on these has nowt to do with reality.

Phone them for actual dims, the number's on the listing.

My 54cm Paddy was 49 c-to-c, 52 ish c-to-top if that helps.

Yep, I rode a 54 and remember the measurement - just found it a bit too stretched for me hence I wanted a '52'. I emailed the seller earlier to see if he had a 52 too.

Some ba$tard got it...

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:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
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.
