    6 feet tall so 56 or 58cm CdF?

    I’d prefer a more upright position although I believe the headtube and forks are longer for 2015 so maybe quite upright already?

    Suppose I could always go with 58 and fit a shorter stem if too stretched?

    I’m 175cm and on a 54cm frame. It feels a bit too upright to me. Not sure I’m get on with a 56cm though. Not sure thats of any help.

    Shorter stem is always better IMO. You get more sensitive steering.

    I’m 6’2″ and on a 58 which feels fine but I wouldn’t want to go any shorter on the stem.

    5ft 10 and a tad here, on a 54. I have long torso and short legs. I did pop a 110 stem on it rather than the 100 it came with.

    I’m 6′ and I’ve got a 56cm (CdF20 2015). It definitely feels right to me. FWIW, most of my height is in my torso. I do mostly road miles / commuting and it feels very similar to my Giant Defy M/L.

    58cm was a bit more stretched than I’d like. There is a bit of a mantra that you should size down for a Cx bike, so I tried a 54 but that was too small. If you’re going to stick to the road / touring then you might be OK on a 58. Otherwise 56 🙂
