Below are the classic road frame geometries.  Rest assured, they make for a fine riding frame.  These, together with your measurements, are an excellent starting point.

A B C
50 52.8 74
51 53.3 74
52 53.8 73.5
53 54.3 73
54 54.7 73
55 55.4 73
56 56.1 72.5
57 56.7 72.5
58 57.3 72
59 57.9 72
60 58.5 72

A = the seat tube,
B = the top tube
C = the seat tube angle
(All measurements are c-c)

Standard Features
Head tube angel at 73 degrees
Fork rake at 4.3
BB drop at 7.0 except for smaller frames, which have 6.5
Chain stays are 41.5

Congratulations on taking the first step on the road to a great new custom made frame!  Terraferma road frames are state-of-the-art, no compromise designs.

Regular or oversized tubing, fillet brazed or lugged, we can do it all, but how to do it is completely up to you!

Here, select between compact and classic frame geometries. 

 

 

Below are the standard compact road frame geometries.  Compact frames are slightly lighter than traditional frames, and make for a highly contemporary looking design.

A A1 B C
45 51.5 53.5 74
48 53.5 55 73
51 56.5 57 72
54 59 59.5 71

 

 

 

A =  actual seat tube
A1= the vertical seat tube.
B = vertical top tube
C = seat tube angle

Standard Features
Head tube angel at 73 degrees
Fork rake at 4.3
BB drop at 7.0 except for smaller frames, which have 6.5
