I ended up switching my order to a Medium and a 100mm stem since I am right in the middle of being able to go either way. I figured I'd also benefit from the slightly increased stack height (several back surgeries) based on the race geometry of the T2. The reach (only 1/2cm difference between a Sm and Med) is workable based on seat height and setback. I'd also be eliminating the slight toe overlap I have now on my current bike (51cm frame) which has the same wheelbase as a small T2. I figured there was no point in trying to blade run on a frame that small.....and (like my wife says) I won't look like a circus bear riding a bike. I'd also have an extra 1/2cm of stand over height as compared to the 51cm bike I have now.
*****This new guy on the forum stuff is killing me. I had a reply typed since this morning and it wont let me post because of the 5 post in 24hr rule. Why can't people who clearly don't belong just get banned when they step out of line because it makes it very difficult for a legitimate new guy to interact and get anything resolved. So if anyone posts a question, I won't be able to reply until tomorrow afternoon or evening.
