Agreed!! I'm 5'6" and ride a 51. They should be ordering you one in your size once you decide on the right bike.Originally Posted by SheFly
You're 5'2" and thinking of a 53???? I am 5'10" and ride a 54. If you fail the standover test on it, it is too big.

I have the orbea dama onix tlt, I'm 5'2 and have the 49 frame which I had to make adjustments to so that it wasn't too big. I know the bikes are different models but I'm wondering if what you were planning isn't too big. I had to put a shorter stem on it, and am going for an even shorter one someday (for right now it's acceptable), also added compact handle bars and slid the seat forward. I have a double compact on it, 11-27, which I really like.
