For size stuff you'll want to start here,
http://www.cyclemetrics.com/pages/FitLinks/bike_fit_links.htm Chris
is obsessed by bike fit and knows more than I'm ever likely to figure
out. When thinking about bike fit don't think about the seattube
length unless you can't stand over the bike. The toptube length
(actually the distance from the seating spot to the top of the bars)
is the single most important measurement on a bike for good fit. I
have some very strong feelings about bike fit and since I posted them
to the list last month I won't do it again.
good hunting,
