You did not define "cycling inseam". Rivendell fits bikes by "pubic bone height". That is the distance from the floor up to the pubic bone. They suggest taking a yardstick, pushing it up into the crotch area until the stick is firmly against the pelvic bone (and not against the softer stuff). Then, a second person measures the distance from that stick to the floor. So, "floor to public bone" might be a good definition of "cycling inseam".

Height: 5"10"

Leg Length: 35 inches (floor to public bone)

slacks inseam: 32 inches

bike size: - commuting/touring: 60

bike size: - track/off-road riding: 56 to 58

3. Wha?
4. 32"

Had a 57cm Bianchi EV3 but felt too stretched out. Was worn down after a ride. Like my smaller Volpe, so I considered a smaller size when getting the KG486. Was between a 53 and 55. Opted for the 53. Very happy now.
