I am 5'5 1/2 and have a 30" inseam. The bike I am riding now is a Giant FCR 3W and the frame size is small.
I am 5'5 (a shade under but who is counting...31.5 inch inseam, short torso. I ride a 51.
And, I am considering selling my Specialized Ruby Expert. It is only a year old, has been in one accident where it was laid on its side, but my LBS went over it with a fine toothed comb and found nothing except a few adjustments that needed to be made. I have ridden it many miles since with no problem, and there are no marks on it (yes, I took the brunt of the fall).
I am not very excited about selling it, but I would to a good home to help me build the Colnago.
