For recreational type riding the 58cm is excellent , for anything serious I would try a 56cm and tailor the fit for your needs.
However, all bodies are not the same. your fit may vary . See a fitter for a Professional opinion.
have a great day!

Training actually works.
Ikr! Who would have guessed? It wasnt even structured training, just hill repeats, lots of climbing.. and saddle time.

So I mentioned yesterday it would be 60 degrees. That still stands, but of course when I can ride it’s 32.

Just had an interesting thought, as I am putting on my shoes. Would it possible to make power meter shoes? or something that attaches to the shoe so that you could move it from bike to bike more easily. And I mean a company make something not the rider.
