Reviewed by Crash from Denver, CO on Thursday, November 10, 2011One of the Greatest in bike frame design and building. The price of this frame is a great deal, considering the qualiiy of manufacturing that went into it. Consider that being an Italian built and not a Chinese, Thaiwan or Japanese manufactured frame, it is a real deal.

Question “I don't understand what is meant by "effective" tube lengths?|Why would those lengths be different? I normally fit on a 55-56CM|Cannondale bike. Would then my size on this frame be a 50?|Thanks!!!!!”
-
Answer The effective top tube length is the horizontal distance from the centerline of the head tube, to the center line of the seatpost. The actual length is the length of the actual tube as it can differ with the angle at which it is set. The effective length is the length you want to size off of.
