If so, then how tall are you, and what does your inseam measure?

I plan to visit the local Cervélo dealer this weekend, but in the meantime, I'm wondering whether the 51cm Cervélo P2C would fit me, or would the 48cm frame be a better fit? I'm 5'6" tall with a 29" inseam.

Let your dealer fit you. Bike sizes especially tri bike sizes don't mean much anymore. If the dealer specializes in triathlon sales, they should have an experienced fitter who will take the time to make sure you get the right bike. If they don't, find a new dealer. Don't skimp on getting a good fit. If you aren't comfortable spending extended periods of time in the areo position, you might as well not buy a tri bike.

I ride a 51 cm P2 SL and I'm 5'8" with a 29-30" inseam. I can't imagine that you would ride a 48.

I'm 5'8 with a 32" inseam & ride a 51 cm P3 that fits perfectly
