45.5 sloping works as 48 classical?
When I look at some of Italian road bikes, sometimes I find sizes start with 45.5 sloping TT, and jump to 50 horizontal TT, and then 1 cm increment....
I need 48! Does 45.5 sloping work as classical 48?
I was looking at Opera, Pinarello, and Colgnago.
Thanks.

Every manufacturer does it slightly differently. Check their geometry charts online for virtual numbers, call/email their dealer/distributor for the numbers if you can't find them online.
