It’s incredibly short per spec. Even on the Large. Do you feel that you are cramped in the cockpit? Or do you feel that the TT lengths more accurately reflect how you fit on the bike? (Normally I’d prefer a 56.5 tt vs a 58.)
Thanks for any insight!

Keep in mind that if you are using flat bars, you usually want a longer top tube becuase your hand positions on the bars is not very far forward of the steerer tube. But if you were using drop bars and you usully rode with your hands on the hoods, then your hand positions on the bars is much farther forward. You did not say what kind of bars you plan to use. And, do you lean very far forward or not?
