I'm trying to decide on purchasing either a Litespeed Blade or a Cervelo P3. As I have stated before, there are not any good tri fitters in my area. So, I wanted to call somebody to find out what measurements I need to determine appropriate frame size and hopefully get an opinion from Tom Demerly and anyone else on the board. I saw a measurement page on bicyclesports.com before, so I went to that page only to find that they changed their website in the last week or two (couldn't find the page). So, I called Bicycle Sports and got some dude who asked me how tall I am and what my inseam on my pants are (5'8.5" and 30). He told me I should definitely ride a 51 frame and didn't know anything about the measurement page that was on the website previously. He was courteous...I'm just not sure that is a very "scientific" method of determing appropriate frame size. Can somebody point in the right direction? (Actually, I'm thinking a 51 might be best, but don't want to make a $3000+ mistake) Thanks!
