I use a 80mm stem with 17* drop, no spacers and a flatbar.

Bike sizing is a bit subjective, but I'm 5' 9.5" with a 31.75" inseam and on a medium with a 70mm stem and it feels a hair too small for me.  I prefer a longer top tube than this medium has, but the seat tube on the large frame was a bit too long for my leg length. 

IMHO the small would be ridiculously undersized unless it was for BMX, but like I said - bike sizing can be subjective.   ;-)

I also ride a large Fezzari Signal Peak with a 60mm stem, for reference, and it fits me a lot better (could still use a shorter seat tube tho).

I think your size is an M, with a shorter stem ... maybe a 40mm or 50mm ...

Re: Carbonda fm936 Thoughts It is attached at the side, but with the 90° pipe, you can have it as you want.

Re: Carbonda fm936 Thoughts 6 months old, so they are cheap, light and (somewhat) durable. Nice work.

Thanks man!
I'm 170cm and wondering what to get, but I was leaning towards the S size with a "normal" stem to have it more racy

for 170cm for sure M with short stem...

also on Skype no reaction. Apparently they don't want to sell me a frame. Maybe no shipping to EU anymore. I'll go elsewhere.
They answer, they ship to Europe.
It is not your usual shop you enter in, buy and get out with the product.
Some patience is sometimes required.

Re: Carbonda fm936 Thoughts The worst part is probably knowing the damn thing would have been on your doorstop 6 months ago if you'd just accepted a BB92 from the get-go. Dang!
