47CM isn't a standard 47CM with Kilos, right? it's more like a 49-50? I haven't been on a kilo in over a year so I can't remember their funky sizing
Either way, the bike is too small unfortunately regardless on that little detail. The directions bikesdirect gives people on ordering a size is a bad one to follow, but seeing how much steerer tube he has left I kinda feel like he could make it work with a long stem if he was strapped for funds and absolutely had to
I'm guessing he needs a 51-52 kilo if that sizing difference is right?
the 47cm kilo has a 513mm TT.
My guess is he needs a 53cm, with a TT of 548mm.
