    I'm 61.5 inches tall, and ride a Trek 47" wsd with 650 wheels. It seems to be a perfect fit for me.

    It seems smaller than my Titus MTB, which is a small frame, and with that bike I was also torn between S and XS, and went with the S because XS was a different frame, (but my frame got recalled later, so I didn't end up with it anyway) and I feel a lot more stretched out on the S, not in an uncomfortable way, but I think I'd have more control over the bike if it were smaller.

    I, too, am 61.5 inches tall (or short, as the case may be - )
    I ride a Trek 5200 WSD, 51 cm., with 650 wheels and am very comfortable! I also ride a Trek 2100 (older model, long before they made WSD), 47 cm. frame and 700 wheels. My mtb is a trek 6500, size small - not sure what that translates to. Point is, while reading about what fits other people can help get an idea of where to start, test-riding different bikes and different sizes is so important. It's the only true test of how the bike feels to you. Good luck, moogal. Hope you find that perfect bike.

    My road rig

    Is a 48cm Specialized Dolce Comp (WSD.) I was also able to fit the mens/unisex 48cm model, but got a deal on the Dolce. Long torso short arms but still needed narrower bars.

    5' 2 1/4"

    Good luck
