    What do you mean here? As in shortest you could go before geometry ends up all to cock? Or just the shortest you tend to find on 'standard' frame sets?

    It's a problem I've had as I'm long in leg compared to torso and then have short arms to exacerbate the whole situation. I've just had a custom frame built and IIRC the equivalent measurements (it's got a sloping TT) are 57 ST with 54 TT although I'd have to look back at the order form/details from the jig fitting.
  • Custom made, about 1 cm. :roll:
