 Hi Doug, thanks again for some insight. It seems they didn't make a 51 
 in the 2009 sage frame runs, it went from 48 to 52 and that measurement 
 seems too big to be a 48. Unless they had sage frames in the 2017 run of 
 51's, that is, but I'm not sure when the color switch happened.

 know how accurate those numbers are on that website though. If the numbers 
 are accurate, they show a 57 effective top tube and 650b wheels. That is a 
 nice looking build with nice parts.

[RBW] Re: FS: Sam Hillborne 51cm $200/obo

2024-04-16 Thread Robert Calton 
Thank you for those measurements. I'm trying to determine if this is indeed 
the 52cm frame, but alas this older geometry chart 

 doesn't 
show those two measurements you gave. I hate to trouble you further, but 
would it be possible to measure the top tube? That should determine 
definitively which it is, as that chart does have that measurement.

 Good evening John. I'm sorry to hear about your reasons for selling and 
 hope all is well, but I am very interested in this lovely Hillborne. I 
 just 
 wanted to double-check the size on it before I commit. The listing says 
 53cm but I can't seem to find Rivendell's dimensions on a 53cm: on their 
 site they have 51cm or 54cm. Could you please confirm if it is 54cm or 
 indeed 53cm? I have a PBH of 83.8, which puts me in a 54cm, but I'm sure a 
 53 would be fine too.  

 All the best,
 Robert

Measurement from center of BB to top of TT is 20". Center of BB to top of 
Seat Tube is 20.25". Same for TT. I apologize for the confusion. I bought 
the bike 3rd hand and never measured it. I just took the sellers word and 
quite honestly I could have just misremembered it.  I am 5'6"  with a 28" 
inseam. I have Compass 650Bx48 tires on the bike and I barely clear the TT..

I forgot the Crank Brothers Stamp pedals.
