Nice bike, makes me wish I had brought my Karate Monkey over here with me. You going to race it or purely a commuter?

How tall are you? Inseam? I'm looking at getting a CC frameset, and I'm thinking 52cm, based on TT measurement. I'm 5'10" with a 32" pants inseam.

I ordered up a 52cm yesterday, based on the specs on Surly's website. The TT was exactly the same length on the 52 CC as it was on my Redline 54cm, which I loved. Plus this bike will probably see more trail/fireroad that paved road, so I wanted it a big smaller. Thanks anyway

Do you still have the Nova frame? I still haven't built up my Crosscheck.

Yeah I do still have the Nova frame. She worked wonderfully as a fixie this summer, and she's currrently in duty as a 'cross bike for a friend this fall. He didn't have the funds to build up his own bike, so he's been using that. Def getting my money's worth out of that sucker. Thanks again :thumb:

She'll either be a fixed or geared roadie next summer.
