700c 32 tires vs 26-inch

[Catrin]

Catrin,

Judging by the size of the pic of the bike on your avatar, I am assuming you are small. If I am assuming correctly, you will much more likely have a better fit on the bike with smaller diameter (26") wheels.

Thank you, this is what I have been trying to figure out. Zen said that Jamis has a different geometry and it may be that they found a way to get around that with the smaller sizes. Someone in the same thread also asked about geometry with the smaller sizes with the 700 wheels.

The bike in the pic is the smallest size that Trek makes available for the 7.6, it is the 15 inch and the reach is a little much. I have already had a fitting for that bike but am considering taking it to another shop to see what other options there might be for me (the stem is already quite short).

Thanks for your thoughts on this! I need to make sure that I get the one that fits me the best this time
