Seat Tube Angles
floosy

Ok... Im confused.....
Could someone please answer a question for me....
What effect does the seat tube angle have on riding position, comfort etc..
the reason I ask is the bike frame I wanted is no longer made in the size I wanted....(for standover height and top tube length..)
But there is one available with a bit more standover height and a shorter top tube....
same manufacturer.
But the seat post angle is 74 degrees and not 73 degrees...
thanks
Dave.

not much TBH except that your weight maybe not as far over the rear wheel.
What frame?"Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

the frame is the Orange 5 Diva (the one they have)
the diva for a man...(ish)0 -
Having now tried the 16in.... the top tube was the right length. any shorter would have been very cramped.....
Bike now on order.......0
