PLEASE HELP - BUYING A BIKE - URGENT EBAY QUESTION

CloudDogS

HI

I have a specialized vita sport - size medium - says it's for 161 - 168 rider hight and I'm 161 and i find it a perfect fit.

I'm looking at a cannondale road bike which says it's frame size is 54 cm and on their sizing chart it says for 171 - ?

So my question - please can you tell me - if I ride a bike that fits 168 - will I be completely put off by the fact that it is for a rider 3 cm taller than my current bike?

Thanks

Kate

It may be too big, yes.

If you miss the auction, don't worry, there will be others. I would buy a bike in person (Craiglist, etc), that way you can try it on, and also inspect for problems.
