Hi,

I've recently bought a Tricross sport and its size 56.

I've been reading through some previous forum posts and want to make sure I bought the right size.

I've got 2 inches clearance between the frame and my groin and have quite longs, but i'm only 5.10.......does the 56 size sound right?

Cheers

    I'm 5'11" and I have long legs. I would go for the 56 too. When you say you have 2inches clearance, is that with both feet on the floor or pedals?

    Hi Salsa,

    That's with both feet on the floor..........The bike feels fine if that is anything to go by!

    I am 5' 10 1/2" and have just got a Tricross Singlecross in 56cm. It fits me just fine. I could not even tell you how much stand over height there is, never looked.

    Off topic. Salsa. How did you get your pics on your posts.
