I measured my bike from center of BB to center of top-tube and came up with 54cm. If I measure c-to-t it is 57cm. I seem to remember when I bought it, it was labeled as a 56cm (I can't find a label on it anymore).
What gives? I'm trying to decide if I need a 54 or 56 for my next bike. My inseam barefoot is about 31 in. However I have a bit of a longer torso (I think). My stem is about 12-13 cm c-to-c on my current bike. I'm worried if I get the 54 cm (c-to-c), the top-tube may be too short (as I've mentioned before). I guess the thing that irritates me is that I don't know the size of my own bike! |

Here's the other weird thing. My top bar is definitely higher than my dad's 54cm. It is like 1.5 to 2 inches higher it seems.
I was riding next to a guy on a motobecane, and I ask him what size bike he's riding. "54cm" I ask. He says "56cm" indignantly. definitely looked lower than mine. I don't know what to think |
