I always thought Lemonds were sized c-c on the seat tube, but the listing I am looking at indicates the size is 53 and it is c-t. That seems wrong to me. Can some one out there confirm how Lemond sized his bikes please, particularly in the late 90's to mid 2000s time period? Thank you!
Probably want to check the spec manuals at:

The "running big for their size" may or may not be true, depending on frame size.

Great bikes..you'll like them.
