I have a 56cm TT at the moment The Ribble is 56.5 and PX 55.5 - run a 90mm stem - think i could do with an extra 10mm.
Headtube on PX is shorter (150 vs 165.3) and I think thats what im looking for (currently have a 165). 72.6 HA on Ribble - 73.5 on PX, what are the effects on this, current bike has 72.
Im looking for something for cat 4 racing (roads and circuits), but also the odd sportive, lots training and even 70m round trip commute a few times a week dont bother with stuff like mudguards for that though. If its raining I take the car.
I think they are a similar weight and near enough similar price.
I have this in a 57 at the moment and it fits nicely its just flexy and heavy. http://www.bianchiusa.com/archives/10-bicycles/coast-to-coast/via-nirone-7-105/

I think the PX with an extra 10 or 20mm stem sounds ideal. Any help or advice appreciated.
