Sizing Help For Lemond Washoe Purchase
1800dinosaur
Posts: 4
Hey everyone! I fell in love with the look of the Lemond Washoe http://lemondbicycles.com/#!/washoe and am ready to purchase one, but the sizing is giving me a headache. Hopefully someone here can help me!
These are my measurements:
Inseam: 90cm
Trunk: 62cm
Forearm: 35.5cm
Arm: 69.5cm
Thigh: 62cm
Lower leg: 62cm
Sternal Notch: 154cm
Total Body: 184.5cm
I would rate my "flexibility" at an 8/10 - I can almost flat out my palms on the ground while standing up.
On the site, I am right on the cusp between a 57cm and a 59cm. I spoke to a few of the employees at Lemond and they recommended the 59cm size (XL). Is this really the right size for me? Anyone have any solid advice here?
I have ridden a bunch of bikes in search of similar geometry, but none seem to be quiet the same as a Washoe. Most of the LBS people I have spoken to said they would put me on a 56/57cm bike in other models just by looking at my height.
Here is the washoe geometry for reference:
Really appreciate any help
