Upgraded as far as we'll probably take this frame. He's been doing well in local fg crits so I've been helping him upgrade this as we go. This bike rules. //////////////////////////////////////////// Update 13 months later. My buddy has been competing on this bike for two seasons now. Going strong.

How do you like the frame? Been thinking about picking one up as a beater, but the geo seems a little weird. I looked on one website and it says the 55cm has a 52cm top tube. Does it feel small for you?

Alright I take back my previous comment. the 55 is small. real small. The size that's called "55" should actually be called 53, but it has a 55cm seat tube. My "56" Parallax has a 56cm top tube, the "58" District has a 55.5cm top tube, but a relatively tall (58cm) seat tube. Go figure.
