I agree with what's been said. I talked (actually email conversations) with 
Grant before buying my Riv. My PBH is 89.5 and he suggested a 63cm Hilsen. It 
fits great. I could fit a 61 as well, it would just show a bit more seat post. 
I also have a 63cm Roadeo and a 58cm Hunqapillar, and both fit great. I bought 
them according to the sizing on the Riv site. I'm a long inseam 5'10 so that 
means a bit shorter reach. If I were to have to start from scratch, knowing 
what I know now, I would probably go with 61cm on the Hilsen and Roadeo, only 
because of the reach, and maybe liking, aesthetically a bit more than a 
"fistful" of seat post than a bit less, as I currently have. But the bikes I 
have fit wonderfully and there is no reason to change. Comparing and 
contrasting, my LBS put me on a 54cm bike 3 years before I found Riv, then 
their "professional fit" that I paid extra for, compressed me, even though I 
protested that my knees were not flexible enough (3 years before double 
replacement) for the low seat position they were suggesting (demanding, 
actually.) I would recommend Riv fitting for anyone. Also, quill stems are 
super versatile in dialing in the bike once you have it.
