Order should I say from viewing the Kalkhoff logo on the 50cycles website.


Kalkhoff
my bike... Is very late again, and again, and again, and again.

Frame sizes of continental bikes with spring seatposts can be difficult to recommend, but I was judging from my experience with a 53 cm and an inside leg 3.5" less, where I could only just cope by fitting a rigid seatpost. With the sprung seatpost taking up two inches of your extra inside leg measure, 1.5" will be spare for your preferences.

Therfore I still think you'll probably be ok with the 53 cm, but much depends on how much you like to have your foot down at rest. I'm happy just with toes down, but others prefer to have a flat foot on the ground.

Evans are playing safe for safety reasons, foot flat on the ground capability, sensible from a dealer point of view, given people can sue in the event of an accident.

I ordered the size recommended by 50C. I´m 1.67 cm. They insisted on the small size gents (49 cm) Hope they were right.
Can you put a good word for me,ha ha.? Terrified by the delay, despite the model and size being in stock!
I know you don´t take bribes from them 50 C.. But most of us waiting for the bikes would think nothing of tipping you as long as we got a quick delivery, ha ha!
When are you going to review the Pro C. the way you did the Aggatu. without the blurry passages.

That bike is far too big for you Poppy, if you are 1.67 cm as you state. Best that you try a toy shop. Seriously, the 49 cm is fine, It's what I'd buy and I'm the same height as you.

Re: my blurry passages, I had a medical recently and the doctor didn't notice any.

I did turn down the chance to review the Pro Connect. I don't do bike reviews as I wish to maintain complete impartiality. As said at the time, I made an exception with the Agattu since it seemed at last a suitable replacement for the Lafree which I'd supported via a dedicated website and which was sorely missed following it's discontinuation.

The test and review was just to ascertain that the Agattu was indeed adequate to replace the Lafree, which it clearly was, so earning it's place in my website.

You´ve got/you are about to get/you´re scheduled to get/you are going to be informed about the thereabouts of the magic bike?
Which of the above? I fit in the last option.

The least that you can do for us, starry-eyed hopefuls, is make us, if at all possible, more envious by regaling us with your first impressions. Give us all the obscene details.
