I am looking to purchase a Planet X Stealth Pro Carbon. It's a tri bike with carbon wheels.
I am looking to get drop bars for it so I can use as a road bike (in some cases). Where I live it's mostly flat, so climbing and descending is not an issue. I will mostly use it with the drop bars and occasionally the aero bar.
I am 5'11 tall. The frame I am getting is the XL size 57 cm. The guy that owns it now is also 5'11 and he says it fits him.
What are your thoughts on this?
Will the larger frame and thus head tube length work in my favor given my intention to use it more as a road bike?
