Grant and I both ride 58/9's, and on these slopers, like the Bombadil, we both ride a 52. Here's what he wrote on the Bomba page:
"48cm (for 650B wheels). For PBH of about 77 to 83cm; Saddle height 67 to 73. 52cm (for 650B wheels) For PBH of about 81 to 87cm; Saddle height 71 to 77. 56cm (for 650B wheels) For PBH of about 84 to 91cm; Saddle height 74 to 81. 60cm (for 700c wheels) For PBH of about 87 to 95cm; Saddle height 77 to 86.. 64cm (for 700c wheels) For PBH of about 93 to 102cm; Saddle height 85 to 92. I/Grant have a PBH of 85 and ride a 58 Saluki, a 59 A. Homer Hilsen, a 56 Atlantis with Albatross bars, and I'm getting a 52 Bombadil."
