Hi,

The old-school train of thought was that your track bike should be about 1 cm shorter than your road bike (or more for large frames). I ride a 53cm C-T road bike and my track bike (which I bought in 1983) is 52cm C-T.

The 51.5cm that you quote sounds OK but the TT sounds a bit short, especially since you use a 14cm stem (which sounds awfully long).

BTW, where in Hawaii are you going to ride a track bike?

Hope this helps.

Thanks.
