Then you'll have some numbers to compare this bike to and to use when you get a larger bike. Takes the guesswork out of it.
This Cross bike (pictured in the original post above) is a 21.6" eff top tube. The calculator you linked above
puts me in 22.25" French Road Fit or 23.5" Mountain Bike eff top tube. Sizing must be a fine art because this 21.6" eff top tube cross bike feels a tad small and my old 24.8" eff top tube mountain bike felt a tad big.Three inches makes a BIG difference. I appreciate the link.
