Do you think you could've gotten a size 55 and still be comfortable? I'm trying to decide if I'm gonna get a 55 and I'm just a little bit bigger than you.

some random observations: sizing is fine (i am 5'11" with 32" inseam) except the handlebars are really uncomfortable and the pedals are a bit tricky for me to get into (was wearing basketball sneakers so maybe too wide?). green looks sharp but damn i wish i got the grape soda before they sold out in size 53. and i also can't get the frickin' crank bolts off (though it looks like my new cranks/bb have too long of a spindle anyway, sigh). the 16t cog has holes drilled through it, looks pretty cool; aluminum lockring looks cheap. i don't usually skid but i did it for fun and on the third skid i felt a small slip (this was after i tightened everything down pretty well). not a big deal i got one of those bikeisland brakes anyway. 48x16 is just a tad tall for my liking.
