Hello everyone, I'm thinking about upgrading to a merlin titanium bike. (one of their new merlinworks ones) I currently ride a trek 58cm 2100 triple which was a good starter bike, nevertheless I've built up my fitness and saved some money in order to invest in a titanium bike build project.

What I need to know, regarding the compact frame, is what the correct size would be. I'm 6ft tall.

Should I go with what ever matches closest with my trek 2100 specs? http://www2.trekbikes.com/bikes/bike...id=1444000&f=3 Also, is compact geometry for me? I live in an area with a lot of hills with steep grades and prefer stiffness. I just don't want to sacrifice too much comfort, since the roads here in seattle are bumpy in a lot of random places.

Or if I wanted to go with traditional geometry, what size should I get if they do not sell a 58cm? Would a 57cm or 59 cm differ? http://www.excelsports.com/new.asp?p...ajor=1&minor=1

I'm pretty sure I'll love this frame since I've test road a Merlin Extralite already, I just want to get the size closest to the bike I have now. If anyone needs me to take more measurements, i'll pull out a tape measure and do so. Thanks for the help!
