Frame sizing
So my first FG is a 57cm kilo tt. I'm 5'11" and I barely fit it. I got it for a deal off of a friend and I'm in college so I don't have the money to go out and buy a new frame. My question is, what kind of significant differences will I have riding something a lil bigger than my perfect fit? sorry if this belongs in the kilo thread, I just thought it was a more general bike sizing dilemma

Also, you say that at 5'11, your 57 cm Kilo "barely fits". What does that mean? As a first approximation, your 57 should be the correct size.

This is probably the most well thought out, simple yet complete sizing guide I've seen yet.
