Sorry. I'm generally against acronyms because they are not always understood. ETT is Effective Top Tube. This comes about because in earlier years the top tube on bikes was horizontal. Modern frames today have a sloping top tube so that if using the top tube as a reference dimension we use a horizontal measurement because today's frames will have varying amounts of slope in the top tube. Thus, ETT provides a consistant reference across various frames.
