How important is frame size?
I'm crossing the 3,000 commuting mile mark and I'm realizing that my enthusiasm has gotten way ahead of my mechanical ability. A
lot of parts need to be replaced but before I make that jump - do i have the right frame size?
I suspect that my frame might be a bit small for me. However, formulas for the right frame size vary and its gotten more difficult to determine frame size. I'm considering getting a longer stem to compensate. I'd like to stick with the same frame but I'll switch if I'm doing something awful to my body.
What harm is there in riding a bike with a frame on the small side?
