You have gotten lots of good advice. I would add one thought; Riv measures their bikes CTC, which actually makes them about 1 CM smaller than most other bike companies, which measure CTT. It also depends on where you want the handlebars in relation to the saddle. I think Grant assumes even to 2 cm above. If you ride 2 or more cm below (as I do), then one size smaller will be fine.
When I bought my Rambouillet, Grant recommended a 64, but I went with 62, because it was in stock, and 64 "sounded" large. I thought the 62 was CTT, Although I'm perfectly happy with 62, I now realize that 63 CTC or 64 CTT would actually be a perfect fit. You wont go wrong trusting the Riv recommendation. michael On Mar 17, 9:55 pm, Khalid Mateen <krm2...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello everyone: > > I am new to this forum and I have a question to ask about ordering an > Atlantis.
