| | I'm not too sure, what sort of bars are u thinking of having? if you have risers, you can get a way with a slightly higher seat-tube. It also depends on how steep the downwards slope is. I rode one recently with a relatively slight, but noticeable sloping downtube, it had risers and it was very comfortable. It was, however about a 54-55cm and I take 57cm seat 55 top. So maybe that helps you out. I really want to get one! Let me know where u source on from. There are a few in Brick Lane Bikes..... been there for a while. The one I mentioned sold very quickly! It was a no-named frame sprayed and decalled as Bianchi! |

| | I *think* you want the seattube to be pretty much the same as you would ride on your usual frame [your legs don't get longer just because you're on a pursuit frame :) ]. Next you want to make sure the top tube is roughly the same length as your usual ride - maybe a bit shorter???. Then the head tube height depends on how aggressive the slope of the frame is. After saying that i think you're best off trying any frame before you buy I ride one which is roughly your size, you're welcome to try it for size |
