Re: [RBW] Standover on a 60cm Sam?

2015-06-27 Thread Eric Daume
Thanks Jeff, that's just what I needed.

That standover is a bit high for me, for my use (as a city bike, I like
extra clearance because I'm starting and stopping a lot when riding with
the kids). Hmm, maybe time to think about a Cheviot...
