Hi all,
Thinking of getting a Dirty Disco frameset, and looking at sizes.
XL looks about right in terms of effective top tube, but I'm a bit worried about standover, as the seat tube is flagged as almost 60cm.
A key impact on that will be the BB height, but that's not listed.
Can someone who owns one let me know:
- distance from the top of the seat mast to the top of the top tube
- BB drop (ideally with sensible cross tyres in, like 32 or 35)
Or even better, if there are any XL disco riders around Bristol, I'd love to take a look.

How tall are you, what's your inside leg measurement, what's your ape index (height minus arm span), will you be riding it off road?
Simon.
Bottom of the BB shell is ten inches give or take a 1/16, measured with 35mm Conti Cyclo Kings on.
My wife recently bought me a DD, although we did visit PX to size it. I'm 5'7 and ride a 54 RT-57 and have a small DD which fits me very well. I've a Retul fit from the dealer when I bought my RT-57 and used that to adjust stem etc. Standover on the medium (54) was a none starter for me.
