I haven't measured it, but it looks to be about a 56 cm frame. I'm not wanting to sell it though. I plan on building it up for touring just in case I have a friend that wants to go. All the friends I know that have bikes either have mountain or bmx bikes, so they would need a different bike. Plus if I ever wreck the trek I'll have back up. There's a VERY slight bend in the top and down tubes where it itself was wrecked, but like I say it is VERY minor. You can't see it from 5 feet away. I already purchased all the parts I need for it off of ebay over the course of the last couple weeks, so by the end of next week it'll be ride-able(hopefully). I'm putting full shimano deore xt components on it. The rims are 36h mavic A119. I had some campy bar-end shifters if I can find them. I don't know how I let something like that disappear. The brake levers will be weinmann, and it's got the stem/bars off of a diamondback centurion. Anyway, it should all fit right on, but I'll find out as soon as the snow melts. It's kind of a hodge-podge, but I wanted it that way.

The only part that'll be tricky is the fact that someone sawed off the derailleur hanger on the rear. I've got several clamp-on hangers that should work though. If not I'll hop back on ebay.
