Hi Ian
Looking at the 8.0 CF. Can you please advise on size?
Below is from a retul fit.
Height 183cm
Frame stack= 595mm
Frame reach= 430mm
Handlebar Y (stack)= 639mm
Handlebar X (reach)= 527mm
Pad Y (stack)= 684mm
Pad X (reach) (middle of pad)= 502mm Pad X (reach) (rear of pad)= 442mm Extension Y (stack)= 784mm
Extension X (reach)= 822mm
Seat height= 802mm
Crank 165
Recommended a Large by fitter (first TT bike)
Thinking is that max pad stack height on the M is 692mm, so that gives 8mm of upward adjustment whereas the L gives an extra 22mm of potential upward adjustment in the future, whilst still allowing pads to be lowered if needed. On the large the pad reach is right in the middle of the range with the stock stem still on the bike compared to a M where I’d need a longer stem.
Feedback is that the L therefore allows me to set up within the middle of the fitting range as well as giving plenty of flexibility for the fit in the future.
