It doesn't matter much unless you're a crotch-worrier or if you need your bars set at either the absolute highest or absolute lowest possible height. The size of the wheels has zero consequence to whether you fit on the bike while riding it, but if the bike is on the big side, fat tires may push it past the comfortable stand-over limit. If you worry about your crotch during stand-over sessions, and/or plan to use fat tires a lot, go with the 57. Otherwise, 59 should be fine.
I agree with others here: if in doubt, why not just ask Rivendell? On Aug 7, 9:04 am, Michael <ssimo...@aol.com> wrote: > I am ordering an A. Homer Hilsen.
