From: 6 miles inland from the coast of Sussex, in the South East of England

Bikes: Dale MT2000. Bianchi FS920 Kona Explosif. Giant TCR C. Boreas Ignis. Pinarello Fp Uno.

Try a different manufacture. All of them build slightly differently and a 51 in one may fit aswell as a 53 in another. Get out and test ride a few bikes.

I "Like" a 51cm with a 53.5cm top tube- but can ride a 49 or a 54 and have all 3 fit me. In fact I do.

The critical bit for me is the top tube length- not the frame size.
