  1. I test rode a 56cm Serotta TI. My current bike is a 57cm Lemond. The Serotta rode great, but unsurprising felt cramped. I decided to have the seller take a short video of me riding it for secondary opinions.

    I'm 5 11.5 (182cm)


  2. FWIW ...

    [INDENT]Are these the same on BOTH bikes?!?

    [INDENT]Top Tube length?

    [INDENT]Seat tube angle?

    Saddle height & relative setback to the pedals?[/INDENT]

    Stem length?

    Crank arm length?[/INDENT]

    [/INDENT]

    [INDENT]IMO, if an individual knows the dimensions of ONE bike which fits well, then s/he should be able to replicate it on another frame IF the frame size of one is within a couple of centimeters of the other.[/INDENT]
