I was very surprised at that - the frames and geometry look different, although they're both aluminium. I shall look more closely next time I go!

I think that's what he said anyway. I think he said that if they didn't have a size of the Triban 3 that I wanted to try, I could try the Triban 5 as the frame's the same and there's no difference

Indeed, young not a midget then ^_^ Buy the bigger bike if you are in between and add a shorter stem for now?

I'm confused, wouldn't having a shorter stem mean that you have to stretch more?

Edit: Just realised that the stem points away, not towards you :crazy:

No, it will bring the bars closer surely? I am tired and it's a long while since I did maths at school!!

The stem attaches to the head tube

There are some frame differences between the 3 & 5, the 5 Rear stays are carbon and there is no mudguard clearance on the 5 and no lugs at the rear.

One thing though the saddle is the same on both and is surprisingly comfortable.
