Re: Is 2cm gonna make that big of a difference? [Dudaddy]

Ok, Im in the market for a Felt IA16 (currently riding a DA4 in 58cm).
There isn't a 58cm to be had any longer it appears but I have come across some 56's.
Do you think 2cm is going to make that big of a difference?


A 58da and 56 ia have stack within 1mm. But the ia is just over 2cm less reach. The felt ia front end will accommodate this with ease.

A 58ia will match the reach of the 58da, but have 2cm more stack. So if you like a very low front end, and have bottomed out your da, you will be stuck. You can always bottom mount your aero bars, but that can run into clearance issues when turning. In short, If you have the horizontal stem on the da, and slammed aerobars, the 58ia will be too high.
