Thanks for the insight, links, careful eyes, and kind words. So it's a 54
or 56, probably a 56. We'll measure to be sure. BTW, a few years ago, when
the riders legs were straight and he wasn't stooped over, he seemed very
happy with the size of the frame! (And he was measured, and the shop and
;)

I'd love a 54 in orange but no $$$.
Too bad your not looking to trade for newish condition Bleriot with 2 new
cockpit setups

That would require raising that aesthetically challenged stem even further.
The seatpost looks fine, a handful plus; this post does not have a nice
flow, and the color changes 2/3 of the way up, where the head is pressed
in, making it appear shorter than it is.
I remember in grade school
Yeah, I have the exact same bike/frame from the same period and it's a 54.
Looking at the pics of this one, the distance from the pump peg on the
head tube to the lower lug is greater than the distance from the peg to the
top lug. The distance on mine is equal for both. Therefore, I'm
Ny guess is 54 or 56. The tape will tell. Should be very easy to sell on this
forum!!

It's either a 56cm or 54cm by the looks of the headtube.
Orange is the best color!

Very nice - I like that orange! I hope I'm riding at 87 - sheesh - that's
awesome. Very sorry he had to give up riding...

Thanks, all. Thought it might be stamped on the seat tube. It’s my dad’s bike.
I sold a motorcycle and bought it for him for xmas years ago. He put a couple
thousand miles on it every summer til he fell off and broke his hip two years
ago at 87. I’d keep it if it weren’t too big for me, but I’m
Pretty sure there was a 50 but don’t think there was a 48. The smaller sizes
(52 and under) had 26 inch wheels.
Cheers!

If it’s greater than 52 cm and you don’t get an even number, you’re doing it
wrong. I don’t remember the small sizes though. All even sizes 54 and up were
made, all the way to 68. Might have been even in the smallest as well. I seem
to recall 50’s existing.
I can’t find my old brochure. Buried
Yes, measurement is to the TOP of the seat tube or, more accurately, to the top
of the lug measured at the SIDE of the seat tube. (Scalloped shape makes it
confusing.)

It's shown on a ruler held parallel to the seat post, measuring from the
center of the bottom bracket (crank bolt) to somewhere above. I believe
Rivendell measures to the top of the seat tube. But if you posted a picture
I'd bet many here could make a good guess of it by eye.
