Getting my first cross bike
Ok I'm order my first cross bike tomorrow and was wondering on size. My road size is 56cm top tube with a 100mm stem. I have 2 choices a 54.5cm top tube with a 110mm stem or a 56cm with a 120mm stem. I'm thinking the 56 and get a shorter stem as the headtube on the 54 is 4cm shorter then my road so I think it might be hard to raise my bars to it's proper height as the 56 headtube is only 2.5 cm shorter. Any opinions?
