Considering moving up to a kinesis tripter atr ti from my specialized crux.
Just wondering if 55.5 or 57cm frame is the one to go for .
Crux is a 56. 5ft 11 , 33 leg . Any thoughts?
I am 5ft 10, 32 inseam, with a 54, changed from a 2012 54 croix der fer.
The standover is good as I ride offroad mostly but I have a 100mm stem
to make the cockpit sized OK and similar to the croix I came from.
I say but as I think the tripster is designed for a 70mm stem, and it does steer a little slow with 100mm, certainly slower than the croix I had.
But with 40cc tyres on it is great and feels perfect, it was with 33cc tyres on that I thought it a little slow and perhaps I needed a size up.
Thanks , am looking at the 57 more than likely
