Gotta love those short hereditary genes huh?
I read an article about this recently and it stated something about the process involving long and painful physical therapy afterwards. Best of luck, not too much though as I'm pretty sure you don't want to outgrow a 58.

It's gonna be worth it when I'm able to make threads like "Looking for a size 58 track bike with a 52cm top tube. Recommendations?"

Yeah body proportions are going to be off for sure. Nothing wrong having with slenderman like limbs through.

You can always take the oath of the weekend warrior. Nothing wrong with that you might even be able to squeeze in some rides in between during the workweek. OR do something about it and ride our bike with a/ to and from a job like a boss. Just because the sun isn't up doesn't mean you can't ride.

I beat Borderlands a few days ago and I felt the gameplay was kind of repetitive. Go here, kill those guys, get this item, bring it back was basically the whole game. After a while I kind of forgot there was a story to it.
On the other hand I haven't beat AC3 yet but the story is pretty good so far, lots of drama. Gameplay wise AC games feel the same only thing that changes is the weapons and setting imo. Not much else changed.

Should I switch out my whole crankset/bottom bracket/cog to a 44/17 set up or keep stock bottom bracket/crank and just switch out the chain ring/cog. 48/16 is a bit tough on my knees(recovering from a torn meniscus).

Should I sell my Specialized frame and buy a Soma Smoothie / All City Mr. Pink / Cinelli Experience?
Or another nice frame if someone has suggestions.

Also, the guy who's buying my roadie is on his way over. so... schweet.

The guy emailed me and told me that my price seems way too high for a Tiagra bike, and I told him that I'm willing to work on the price but not dramatically, and he hasn't emailed me back. I'd love to work something out with him, but I'm not going to cut my price in half or anything. I'll part it out before I sell it for too little.
