If anyone is thinking about this you need to look at the Geometry. The cross check seat tube length is deceiving because it's shorter because it's a cross bike. I had to get a 46 and I usually fit on a 50-51. This one is a 52. The effective top tube is 547.1 and the stand over is 30.6. You can check the geometry here.

I totally agree with uforgot! I rode a 50cm Surly Cross Check and it was HUGE on me! I have a 50cm Bianchi Eros Donna. I ended up getting a ... wait for it... 46cm Long Haul Trucker... and it actually fits! I couldn't believe it!

Oooh, it's my size! I already have one (it's black), so I guess I can't justify it, eh?
I ride a 52 cm Surly, but a 56 cm Kona. So, yes, size *down* on a Surly CC!"If Americans want to live the American Dream, they should go to Denmark." - Richard Wilkinson
