Specialized size

I'm 5'54'' with inseam 29,5.
I'm seeking for a possible verification for the correct size of the Specialized Sirrus Expert 2009 (or Sirrus 2008 - it has the same geometry), from a current owner.
I'm probably size small. However top tube length of 540mm seems short (for a flatbar bike).
Don't have a dealer in my area.
Thank you

which will give you a range of different fits for seat tube c-c, c-t, and top tube length.
Then you could compare that to specialized's frame geometries on their website.
I think there are other online fit calculators around though, so maybe you could try a couple. You'll need someone to help you take measurements properly.
Allready done this. Gives proper Top tub length around 61-62 ???
Holy cow, that's big. You say you're 5'5"?
You must have measured something wrong then.
FCN 8 off road because I'm too old to go racing around.
I'm 5'10" with 31" inseam (so effectively ~39" above the saddle). The French fit for me at that site suggests a top tube length of ~56cm.
Being 5'5" with 29.5" inseam (~35.5" above the saddle), you ought to be looking at a top tube of ~50cm... Unless perhaps you have extra-ordinarily long arms!

Top tube 52 cm is XS and 54 is S according to Specialized !?
I stil think 52 is a bit short for my height for a flatbar.(Probably OK for a classic road bike)
So the verdict: Don't buy if you can not test the bike !
