Well since I wasn't able to race 'cross this past season due to physical issues, it's time for me to start thinking/daydreaming about next season.
So for once in for all, what's the best sizing ideas? I've seen opinions all over the place. Size lower than your road, same size as your road. What do you all think?
For the record, I'm just a hair shy of 6'5" with about a 35 1/2-36" inseam in socks. Right now I have the largest Crosscheck (63?) but want to save my pennies and get something lighter.
What do u guys and gals suggest for sizing?
Thanks..Toddre

you are slightly bigger than I am.
a 61 Ridley should do you fine
crossbows can be had NOS for around $500
crosswinds for around $800
and supercrosses for around $1K

How much do you want to spend on the frame/fork and how much lighter do you want to get?
