I have Big Bens (measure 52mm) and Compass (measure 44-ish) for my

The Big Bens are a wonderful tire. Fast on the streets with little noise,

If you are on a 58 Saluki a 54 Hunq seems like the right size. The Top
tube lengths are about the same, the standover is about the same. If you
are someone with a longer torso, like me, I would get the larger bike.
I rode a 58 Ram and even the 54 Huq seems a bit small for me with a 86.5 cm
I've thought long and hard about this exact thing for myself and I've come
to two conclusions. One is to just pony up and get the Bombadil. For me,
being smaller, the 48cm Bombadil would fit very nicely and would still give
me 650b tires. Two would be to get a custom Riv...mountain mixte with
