Use the results to compare them to the geometries of the bikes you are considering. If I were you, I'd get the Fuji, as to take advantage of the tax credit. Good luck.
Thanks, I've filled it out but the measurements I used aren't really accurate (was doing it by myself with a crappy tape-measure and no level). Result: I'd need a 63cm C to T seattube for a competitive fit O.o that would mean that even the 61cm would be to small (or at least even smaller than the advised competitive fit...) But, I'll ask my wife to do some accurate measurements tonight
I also used a less advanced calculator (just total length and inseam, which I do know a bit more accurately) and that said 62 - 66 cm bike as well. Now, I don't see myself as being all that tall, but apparently I'm almost a freak when it comes to road bikes

(even the Dutch Maze doesn't have anything larger than 60cm, and by Dutch standards, I'm just slightly above average height...)
Good news: I've found a shop in my home town that sells FG's as well

they were a bit hard to find because they are also a coffee shop (the normal kind, not the Dutch version

) but turns out they are 3 minutes from my office

Their approach is "build to needs", so I've dropped them a mail with what I'm looking for, so might open up some more options...
Thanks again
