Right on! I will say the stack height is a tad low and if I had to purchase again, I might have considered the 52. However, that standover height on the 49 is perfect. I have about an inch of clearance. Hope this helps too!
@@dvoob right on. This bike rips. I rode it to work today and have converted it to a flat bar. Love it!! Super quick off the line and a ton of fun to ride.
Wrong. Glasses are worn over the straps so if you crash they fall off your face easier and don’t get caught up under the straps and crush into your face.
do you have any clearance of the boys standing over the frame? I'm thinking to go with the 49cm so I can stand over it and I don't mind the more aggressive posture. I'm 5'8" 31" inseam so pretty close to you.
Wuddup! Plenty of room for ferda bois. I'd say a good 1-1.5ish". It helps having the top tube slacked a little bit. I do prefer riding smaller bikes as I feel I have more control, but sometimes I wish I would have opted for the next size up. I also use this bike as a distance road bike and that aggressive posture can get uncomfy. I have as many spacers as I can under my stem too.
Thanks for the review Tim!
All-City Cycles ayyy!! Thanks for making a dope bike!
I'm just under 5'10". I purchased the 52cm (55 TT) frameset. 32" I/S, it fits me like a glove.
Nice! I kinda wish I had gone with that size frame... the bike feels a tad small since I've been riding it now for a year...
@@timwilliams1416 Could always replace it with the new 'Nature Cross Geared' frame set? It's the exact same frame with a better paint job IMHO.
Shout out to a fellow member of the long torso gang. On the fence between the 52 and 49, glad you added your height and inseam because we're the same.

@@thegravelist coming from a caad 10 so I think I won't mind the more aggressive fit

Recommended changes: 2 part crank set. When wearing sunglasses while riding glasses go under bike helmet strap. Like the pros bro.
Well... sir. I'm not a pro, so I will wear my glasses however I want. Lol, let's go for a ride in a few weeks!!

Great looking bike. Good review. All-City makes beautiful, high quality bikes!
David Unger they really do. Plus that liquid paint. Butttuhh
How's the ride quality?
totallyshamanistic fuggin dope. This bike can take on everything. Smooth, springy, stiff in all the right spots and fun to ride!
I wonder if this bike with a 2x drivetrain is fast enough for group rides.
I’m not sure if it can take a 2x setup. I will say it’s definitely fast though. It’s got race pedigree throughout!
I’m between this & and SC stigmata
Ooof. That’s tough. I’ve been eye balling a stiggy myself. How bout you get the stigmata and we can swap in a few months! Then swap back. Ha
@@thegravelist lol sounds good !
