I am currently looking at the Casseroll for the next addition to my stable, I am selecting my frame size based primarily on TT horizontal measurements. I am 5'5" tall and am looking at the 45cm or 47cm frame, my question is this, why on the TT hor. measurements does the 47cm have a 3/8" shorter top tube than the 45cm, or is this a typo? I am confused cause Jensons' web page lists the geo specs the same as Salsa and I don't want to end up with the wrong size frame. I know the Salsa guys look the forum over and post on occasion so any help would be apreciated I would like to get an '07 closeout from Jenson before the all go away, I really like the white panels.
So I looked at the charts again and saw that the metric numbers are 510mm on the 45cm frame and the 47cm frame is 520mm, now this works out to 20.07" for the 45cm and 20.47" on the 47cm, but the charts gives 20.8" for the TT horiz. next to the 510mm reading. I suppose I just want to be sure on the TT measurement.
Sorry for the confusion there. We are in the process of updating some of the Geo charts on line. The metric numbers you see are correct. The larger frame will have the longer top tube.
Bobby, So then are the specs on the web site correct on the Casseroll. I have a 49 cm Chili Con Crosso and it seems to fit fine. My Gunnar Roadie is a 56cm so it is a little shorter stand-over than the 53 cm (56 traditional) size Casseroll. It seems logical that with the sloping TT I should have some more room than a level TT. Any thoughts?

Complete Casseroll (both single and triple versions) will be in stock here sometime mid January...will be out to authorized dealers that have them on order shortly there after. There will be short supply on these because of how high the demand is for a bit. If your really hot for it, the best thing to do is to call your local Salsa dealer and make sure you reserve one. :thumbsup:

If my local Salsa dealer is closed until after New Years (and the one I would really like to order my Single from), will I be S.O.L for a size 53cm in the first batch?
