Slowman and few others here have recommended shorter crank length with smaller gears, to allow a more open hip angle etc.
If I read well, Rappstar used 172.5mm cranks with 53 big chainring and may go to 170mm.
Who has tried shorter cranks? Feedback? How did you modify gearing?
Given that Jordan is hmm...one or 2 inches taller than me, I'm thinking I would need to use something like 165 or 167.5mm and get rid of the 55T for something smaller...
