Default Koga Miyata Valley Runner

I've got a change to purchase a Miyata Valley Runner frameset . Seat tube is 19.5" c-c with 22.5"
top tube Any one know what standover height would be on this bike ? My pbh is 31.5" and I think it
may be a bit large.

Thanks Bill

As far as I know, a Valley Runner is a hybrid. The BB height for this kind of bikes with normal wheels is
generally in the 11-12 inch range. If you measure the frame vertically and add the BB height you
will get a good impression of actual top tube height.
