    I had similar problems when getting sized for a Cube, I have pretty much the same measurements as you (5,9" 30 leg). The shop I tried sized me on a 54 and it was too small, 58 was too big and even the 56 didn't fit right but the option they came up with was to go with a 56 and put a longer stem on the bars to stretch the bike out a bit for me.
    DO NOT SETTLE for what they have in store, Get a fit somewhere else, you might have to pay for a fit but if you do enough waffling in store about being ready to buy right now etc, they will prob fit you there and then for free. Then go back to your BTW scheme shop and tell them to order exactly what you want.
    Best of luck

    Go in at an off peak time when they have time to spend with you and not cut corners. I spent 2 hours trying 3 different bikes and then different stems.

    Also if you are going for the Peloton pro, would you not consider going for the entry level Cube carbon bike, great spec for the price and only a couple hundred extra as far as i know :-)

    My advice would be not to buy a 58 cube even if you think it fits in the shop. I have a 58 and I'm on the edge at 5' 11" in fact I just put a 90mm stem on instead of the 110mm the bike came with.

    I went back to the Shop yesterday to try the 58.. definitely too big.. too much on the reach - my elbows weren't bent. Tried a 56 in the carbon and that was definitely a better fit.

    Turns out they're sold out of 56 in the Peloton Triple until possibly next September when the 2013 model comes out. They were probably trying to flog the stock of 58's that they have :mad:

    Try a few other cube dealers or go for the compact.
