Sorry if this has been asked, answered or is staring me in the face...
Can someone tell me the standover (mid top tube or so) for a 62cm Appaloosa?
And a follow-up... I see the 62 has a recommended pbh of 91-97. Has anyone
with, say, an 88-89 pbh gone with the 62 or is that strictly 58cm
It is definitely true. My usual preference is for bikes on the high side
