Because of my short legs and my need for standover, I ride a frame one size smaller than normal for a person my size.

To get the fore and aft room I needed without putting all my weight on my front wheel, I ride with a 35mm setback FSA seatpost.

Because of the steep seat tube of short wheel base frames, the setback actually puts me in the right place in relation to the bottom bracket.
