    Hi Guys,

    I'm looking to pull the trigger on a PX RT-58 Carbon/Ultegra this week.

    I’m 5,11 with 31.5 inside leg and from the size charts I figure I'm a large. Unfortunately the Matte Black is sold out in large so looking at the Green/White combo.

    Before I order I wouldn’t mind seeing one in the flesh or throwing a leg over it, or even just to get some real world feedback from owners. If I could see a medium or a large framed Rt-58 I would feel a lot more comfortable about ordering on line!

    P

    I'm 5.8 and went for the small and it fits like a glove. You should be okay with the large if not you can return it . I'm very happy with mine

    Thanks, I went ahead and ordered today : )
    Gutted I could t get the Matte Black but the green and White looks okay and at the price with carbon and Ultegra it wasn't to be passed up.

    Can't wait to get.. Nothing like a new bike

    I got one last June in matte black. Full Utegra on mine. I'm 6,2 so went for the XL. Love the bike, cannot fault it. It's been parked up since end of October and I've been using old steel bike for winter. Can't wait to get it back out on the road

    Indeed I was looking at the Pro Carbon initially but its too compact for my liking, I like the look of the geometry of the 58 more so hapy enough to have the FSA chain set as a trade off.

    The matte black looks great..I would have loved that but sold out well quick

    Green and white looks the part too. Best of luck with it. You won't be disappointed

    Agreed much better looking frame alright and internal cable routing.

    Well wear :)
