This is coming from someone who races 15 or so tt's a year and one tri. I am now riding a 56cm toptube with a 75 degree STA and 14.2cm head tube length. The bike I'm looking at is a 54cm toptube with a 74 degree STA and 12.5cm headtube length. What accomodations would be needed to fit the same on this bike? Easy as a 1cm shorter/longer stem, or is the geometry way off? I know there's going to be a bit more drop in front, but I was concerned about length and going with such a slack STA. I have been advised to not go with a 74 degree bike. but is the difference between 74 and 75 THAT big?
Thanks for any insight. This is driving me crazy.
