Got it about 1 week ago from Christopher at PK Racing. I was custom fitted end of last year. I am 6'5 with a short torso and the bike is 58cm C-C seat tube, 54.5cm TT with 11 cm stem, seat angle is 76deg. This is by far the smallest frame I have ever been on. Christopher spent quite a bit of time figuring out the best bar for me, we tried 3 or 4 different setup, a typical Syntace clip on was putting me on a 54cm frame !. We then decided to go to the Oval one piece bar (the Aluminium version). I then went back and was re-fitted with that bar on the Sizecycle (after PKRacing ordered it), did not like the elbow pads so I went with the Hed pads on the Oval bar. We then selected the lowest stack height stem (Cane creek S6) to keep the front as low as possible (in order to get the largest possible frame for me).
I have only 100 miles on the bike so far, the only change I can see if to turn the Hed pads a bit on the inside. I will work that out in my follow-on fit tweaking. I am very impressed by the compact crank. Truly ideal gear ration for me (I run 12-23 in the back). The Dura-Ace 10 is really good, the brakes are super strong, I almost went over the bars at the bottom of the first downhill...
The steel frame rides like a dream and is gorgeous. I have not weighted the bike but I think it is lighter than my Litespeed classic with Ultegra. Well, I now hope it will make me faster !
