Hi, Kiley. As I recall, your Chev was the 60 size and you found it too heavy when picking it up to lift over gates or fences or such. You might want to review the pics of the current 60 size with the Orange Nu-Chev (could that be N-ewe Cheviot, get it???) to see if the top tube is lower Or, ask Riv. I'm pretty sure that the sizing chart on their site is the one that's been there for years. I'm not sure if that will be the same sizing chart for the N-ewe Cheviot (I hope they don't actually call it that, but it's pretty cute for here).
If I'm in the middle pbh for my size (83pbh, I'm assuming 55), I'll be getting one. I think I'm in the same decade of life as you and picking up is important. I'll be having James at Analog build mine up "light." You might want to do something similar (lighter saddle, wheels, tubeless, alum handlebars, 1x) to make my entire bike riding/ownership experience better. There's another thread about it. Bicycle Belle Ding Ding or Joe started it, perhaps a month ago.
