Indeed, Riv sizing can get quite confusing because they're still labeling
them according to seattube length. In this crazy modern world of sloping
toptubes an older 54cm Atlantis fits like a newer 51cm, rendering sizing by
seattube the wrong way to go. The trick is to look - as you subsequently
The effective reach on my 60cm Surly CC is 60.0, the 61cm Roadini almost
the same, 5mm bigger. The CC is a smidge too long for me, the height is
good, but my T-Rex arms needed a new fork with uncut steerer tube and the
shortest highest adjustable stem I could find at the time and it was never
OH I see I just went to the geometry page for the 61 and it's 62 to the top
of the tube... ok gotcha. So the 61 is a pretty decent size bike, even for
me.

But wouldn't size wise the 61 correlate to the effective height, as opposed
to the actual height of the shorter seattube?

The way to think of it is two road frames with about the same reach or
effective toptube, but the Roadeo has a flat tube reaching back to a taller
seattube and the Roadini has a toptube that drops down to a shorter
seattube. It's actually a downslope, not upslope.
For instance to correlate to
Explain your decision to size down to me, please. Educate me. I had been
toying with the idea of a 61cm Roadini-- pbh 91. Wouldn't the upslope make
you think larger size as effective reach would be shorter? Help me out on
this, honest question. Doesn't have to be Adam if someone else knows the
Quick correction - Looking for a 57 Roadini. I didn't realize how much
upslope the top tube has. A 61 Roadeo would still interest me though!

The orange is the fastest one.

Are you looking for a complete or a frameset?
I have a 61 Orange Roadini that I have been seriously considering moving
along.
