Hey all,

I was wondering if any of you guys/gals can help me by telling me your hight, inseam length and the bike size you all ride. I realize that geting a bike fit is the best way to go, but I just want to get a general idea of cross maker sizings.

I'm 5'6.5" with a 30" inseam and flexible.

I'm particullary intrested in people who ride Cervelo P3, P2K, Trek Equinox 11, Felt B2

Thanks much

If you want to check out those specs, why don't you just check out the specs? They're available online at the manufacturers websites, in catalogs, and at dealers. And while you're at the dealers, have them measure you, and take some bikes out to see how they feel.

For what its worth, I'm about your size, slightly taller, with slightly shorter legs, and the 48 cm Cervelo Dual I tested a while ago seemed to be a perfect fit. My guess is you'd be a 50 or 52.

Yeah, I've looked at all the specs and geometries. I've even figured out all the differences in dimensions but it's always nice to know what body sizes are matching what size bike for various makers.

Thanks much for your input.

I got a new Cervelo P2 SL(same as P2K with Anodized finish)
It is a 52 cm bike, with 700 wheels.

I am 5' 9 1/2" , 173 lbs, and have a 30" inseam.
I was fitted at the shop and the guy seemed to know what he was doing.
The initial fitting took about 3 hours.

When the bike finally came into the shop they fine tuned it for me.
He changed the stem to extend the aerobars forward a bit since I have a longer torso.
Fits like a glove.

I would go to the Cervelo website and look for authorized dealer in your area and see if they have someone on staff that knows how to size you.

5'8"+ w/ 30" inseam. Arms are a tad on the long side. Not very flexible in the hamstrings according to the guy @ the bike shop but have good hip flexibility.

I ride a 54cm Felt S25 and it feels like butter... LIKE BUTTER I tell you!
