sorry if things were taken as me preching, i was just trying to say that even if the frame was not an exact fit, it could be tuned a bit... good luck with the sale
same reason shoe manufacturers make small shoes... to accommodate small people.anthonyjefford":magcuv0t said:daft? i wonder why all those manufacturers make stems under 100mm then...
A short stem and log top tube places less weight over the front wheel and hence reduces front wheel grip on tricky descents. You can always make a wrong bike size fit, but you'll never get the best out of it
This isn't the lightest steel frame i've owned (58cm Guerciotti G55 1630g), but its hardly surprising when you take into account the diameter of the tubes, there's a lot of steel here.
The frameset as pictured weighs 2.4kg, the headtube is 47mm dia, definitely stiffness over weight, and there's enough paint on here to drown a cat
btw the Guerciotti lasted only 6 months and 2 wet days before bubbles of rust appeared under the paint.
