I have decided to get myself a road-going bike and i was looking at the Boardman Performance Hybrid bikes (i don't get on with drops and like my discs).
Thing is, the smallest frame is a 45cm model & i'm only 5'2" tall.

What else is out there as a similar bike but in smaller sizes?

Have you actually sat on the 45cm?

Can't find one! all the demo models around seem to be mediums.

Thing is, 45cm works out at 17.71" which is way too tall for me, i only have an inside leg of 27"-28". If it were 16.5" i could get away with it but i've no desire to castrate myself everytime i need to put both feet down!
