    By The Way...

    $2100 for the unbuilt frameset is a steal...as a former employee of a Seven dealer and a current id8 rider, I can honestly tell you that if a 58cm is "close" to your size and you are considering road bike; don't pass this kind of a deal up...

    OK. My seat tube is 54cm, top tube is 57.9. The head and seat angles are both 73. Again, I'm 6' with a 34" inseam.

    I'm 6 ft and all the bike shop told me I need 58, it should be perfect for you.

    The frame was custom ordered by someone who was 6ft.

    Just so everyone know I'm letting this frame set go at this price only to STR family members! This is a brand new Ti/carbon custom frame set, the deal can not be better! If it does not sell by friday then off to fleabay it goes.

    Are you sure the geometry on that tag is correct?

    It has a standover height of a 64 frame, and a tope tube length of a 51

    Was this frame custom made? From these number you would need to be 6' with a 38 inseem and a tiny torso.

    I'll measure it and let you know. It looked pretty normal to me.

    Yes it was custom ordered for someone that's 6ft but not sure about the legs and arms part.

    the numbers for the top tube abd seat tube are transposed.

    That may very well be it. I talked to my fit guy and he said based on those dimensions, the bike would be square :-k

    I will get the serial number tonight and check with seven to get the correct numbers. Based on those numbers, I can have a fit bike set up with the same numbers and see if it will fit without ever mounting anything on the frame.

    This may work for me and I would be :bang:

    Cool.

    You saw my numbers and I am 6 feet as well. It looks like the top tube is .8 cm longet than mine and the seat is one cm shorter. Good luck!

    Since the frame was never built the tag was on the frame the whole time. So..........I think the number is correct.

    Stand over is 32.1 inches, it's not that bad is it?

    I thought all road bikes have shorter TT.:?:

    Either way you'll need long legs.

    The tag on the frame cannot be right.

    I

    am interested in seeing what the measurements really are. Because if fits it's a steel. That's just flat out a great bike!
