The Un-Clydesdales

Clydesdales have their own sub-forum and deservedly so. And those of us who are more or less average in weight have the rest of Bike Forums for tips and advice. But what about the Un-Clydesdales among us?

I'm 5'6", 138 lbs and – not unlike the Clydesdales – often wonder if the advice on frames, tires, wheels, saddles and many other things isn't the best for someone my size. I would guess many of us are neither heavy nor average in weight.

Take frames, for example. If I'm shopping a new frame for randonneuring, should I be looking at the same tubing as the rest of us?

Just wondering, is all.
