As a bike, a V85 is a great ride....
Based on that the 56cm might be alright- right? so the seatpost is the actual bar that the seat goes on What is the setback? Thanks!
Also, is it just as good to get that or to ensure you get a larger frame from the get go?
In a nutshell, I'm trying to get a solid yes/no on if I should purchase this as it's still a considerable amount of $$.
