yeah, i can see how you could end up with an incorectly-sized 486 frameset if you just went by the size number. the bottom bracket hangs down low and the seat tube extends up past the tt.
though interestingly enough, by the time you get to my size, 59, the TT and ST are both 59cm squared, so that may be my size. i'll do some more research here...
in terms of components, i'm not sure yet. perhaps record 10 with eurus wheelset, fsa k-wing or itm bar and some other goodies. we'll see!
