    Thinking of getting one of these. My inside leg (crotch to floor) is 31 inches and my height is just under 6 feet. Would the 57 cm be the best size for me?

    I am 6'3" and inside leg is 34 and the 59 was probably the most comfortable frame I had. If you could try one it might be the best option.

    You are most likely between 55 and 57cm for this bike. Bianchi is quite different to other manufacturers when it comes to frame size. We have a 50cm ViaNirone that has 52cm top tube and 100mm stem, so it is rather 52cm than labelled 50cm.

    I would ask for frame geometry and start from there.

    Upss... here it is:

    Possibly 57cm should be OK, IMO. Otherwise, you may have to change the stem and adopt it that way.
