Again thanks to all of you for taking the time to give a new member to the forum some advice.
Just as an FYI, it's considered a little disingenuous to go to a shop, get sized and fitted, then go home and order the bike on line. (especially if it's a brand the shop carries)
Also, the proportions of a bike frame can vary a lot from brand to brand and model to model. Not all 56cm will fit the same. If you get the bike a the shop you got fitted at, they (often) will swap components like stems and seatposts, to adjust the bike to you, as part of the delivery set-up. With an online bike, that's all up to you.
