Hi All

Been to Leisure Lakes today as Im considering a new bike a Cannondale Quick 2, I sat on and stood over a medium and it felt kinda right to me http://www.cannondale.com/bikes/recreation-urban/recreation/quick/2011-quick-2-16073 Stand over is 75.9cm and top tube is 54.5cm.

Compared to my Secteur Elite (size ML) which is Stand over of 78.6cm and top tube is 54.8. I am assured by everyone I have ever spoken to ever my Secteur is the right size for me however I always felt it was a tad big (CRUDE ALERT) standing over the Secteur my *Sack* just touches my top tube so im not sitting on it or anything, just feels a little close (first road bike).

So my question is basically how should a hybrid fit im thinking more stand-over is good?

All advice/Opinion/Facts welcome ...thanks guys

The standover of my hybrid and road bike are very similar - i.e. not very much at all.




I can't think how more standover would benefit me on the hybrid, for what it's worth. But I'm no expert! ;)
