"I'm a little mystified by Riv's PBH chart for this frame " I just took a look at both the new & old sizing charts. On the old one, they used PBH, but it's not on the new one. The closest dimension is stand-over height. I'm 5'10" with an 84 cm PBH. On the old sizing chart, I could ride either a 56 or 58 Atlantis. I have a 58 that fits well. When I visited Rivendell & took a test ride on the new Atlantis, they asked my saddle height (29" = 73.66 cm), set up a bike & sent me on my way. The fit was so close to my 58 that I didn't realize it was a 53 until I returned & asked (assuming it was a 56). So there is quite a difference between "new" sizing & "old".
Maybe you take your PBH & subtract a couple of centimeters for clearance to choose a standover height? dougP On Thursday, June 13, 2019 at 9:18:44 AM UTC-7, Joe Bernard wrote: > > I'm putting this out there for any potential buyers, not to try to talk > you specifically into snagging it: > > I'm a little mystified by Riv's PBH chart for this frame and don't agree > with it.
