Hello Ulf Thank you for your nice Website and your interesting blog. I read everything about your Strael posts. I wanna order one too but actually i am hesitating about the size i am somehow between my bikefiting and fairlight recomends me a 58 T frame but both says the 56 T with 40mm spacers will work too. Hmm!? I’m 1.82m and have an inseam of 89,9cm. Maybe you can write me your measurements and experiences. ajanmeier@gmail.com Grüsse aus der Schweiz Jan

Hi Jan, I´m 178 cm tall with an inseam of 84 cm. The 56 T is just right for me. The 58 T would give you 19 mm more stack and 9 mm more reach, which sounds reasonable for someone of your size. But you are 4 cm taller than I am and you have 6 cm more inseam, which means your upper body is 2 cm shorter than mine, the reach of the 58 T could be too much for you (depending on your arm length). I find that difficult. Is there a chance to orientate yourself on a current bike frame you are riding?
