50cm or 52cm frame?
Ok.. another frame size question. First, of all i dont want to start a debate on how to size a frame. Just wanting some info. I stand 5'4 with and inseam of 29.5 ". My current frame is a compact 50cm. I rode a 52cm frame (motobecane grand sprint), since the frame is a bit more traditional i did not knwo what to expect. The stand over height left me 3/4 to an inch of room. it seemed to ride fine. i was reaching a bit but had made no adjustments to the fore/aft position yet. I am wondering since most LBS say my frame size is a 50cm, is it possible that i could ride a 52cm frame.. if so how do in know that the frame is really to large.. other than my "boyz" touching metal at the top tube. thanks
