I'm looking into buying a new sugar. I'm currently on a small sugar frame (5'6", 31" inseam). the way my bike is set up now is with a 100mm thompson stem and a setback seatpost. the saddle is higher than the bars by a few inches.
I'm thinking of going with a medium frame instead but the seatpost will not be higher than the bars and I will be using a smaller stem most likely.
Most pics i see of people on fishers have their seats up high for a more aggressive riding position. If I go with the medium this will not be an option for me. However, I will probably not need to use a setback seatpost.
What are the benefits of a smaller frame as opposed to a larger frame? The bike store says i should be on a small for east coast technical riding, but the truth is i could probably fit on either a small or medium. suggestions? feedback?
thanks, Karen
ps. WSD is not an option
