Im considering a carbon 456, and looking at the sizing on the on-one site, I'm thinking a 16" might do, what with the long top tube. Im 5'10, but short in the leg ~30" - any owners offer any advice? Cheers.
I'm 5"10 with a 32 leg and I ride a 18". The top tube is long, but I like riding long bikes. The stand over height isn't huge tho. You could probably get away with either. Just depends on how long you like your bikes
5"11 with 32 leg. 18 is fine. Long arms, stumpy legs. Good fit with a 60mm stem.
5'8" on an 18". From memory there's only 9mm difference in TT length between 16 & 18. Had I realised, I'd have bought the 16"
5'10", 31" inside leg, 16" frame w 50mm stem

i'm 6' 2" and ride an 18", if i were your size i'd probably drop down to a 16" one
I'm 5'9" (and a half) with a 30" leg, and am on an 18", and it feels fine.
Moreover, I actually have it up for sale! [url= http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/on-one-456-carbon-18-bike-with-talasreverbrovalxt ]http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/on-one-456-carbon-18-bike-with-talasreverbrovalxt[/url]
I'm 6 foot 2 and I am struggling a little with the reach. Got a 20" frame with 70mm stem that I'm trying to replace with a 50mm or shorter.
There seems to be a lot of carbon456 owners on here. Has anyone ever started a thread devoted to them where you can ogle each others bikes and exchange advice? Cube owners have a thread going, not sure if its a singletrack thread, so why not us?

Thanks for the replies, the photos were helpful, Mr Nana.
I saw yours up for sale, kevin1911 - I might have been interested in frame and forks, but I really don't need the whole build. The wife would never understand...
NB seat post is down in those photos
Blisterman - drop me a mail if you're interested. I'd be happy to sell the frame and forks together.
I'm 5'9", 31" inside leg and am very happy with my 18" C456 with 70mm stem.
5'8" 32" leg and always buy 16" on ones.

I have a 16'' one for sale... please contact me for details.
Cheers
5'10 with short legs here. On a 16 - feels perfect. I dont think the 18 is much longer - just taller.
