I'm planning to purchase my first direct from China frame to build up over the winter as a race bike. I'm leaning towards a Model S with EPS molding. I'm just a little unclear on the sizing an geometry of this frame. Some measurements look like they are taken from different points than Trek uses.

Is anyone able to comment on what size would be the closest to a Size 56 2023 Emonda SLR? I appreciate the help and info available on this site.

It looks like the Size 52M is 1.5mm shorter in reach and 7mm higher in stack. I'm currently riding with 10mm of spacers on my Emonda, it seems like this size would work well with less spacers. I'm 183cm tall with an inseam of about 31.

Anyone else roughly my size care to share what size Model S they are riding and what the fit is like?

With sprint spokes on the rear drive side and brass nipples, they came in at 1470g total.

They seem pretty bomb-proof and well-built. They also have wider options if you plan to run wider tires. I have used both GP5000 28c and 30c, the 28c are nearly a perfect fit IMO. I am currently running a 28c up front and 30c in the rear for a little added cushion on long rides.

The only "issue" with LightBicycle are the nearly endless options. It took me forever to decide on a setup.

I purchased a set of 56mm deep AR56 23mm internal, 30mm external wheels last Fall from Light Bicycle. I had them built up on DT Swiss 240's with steel Sapim spokes.

The process was smooth and my wheels arrived exactly as ordered. They usually have in stock options if you're in a hurry and not worried about customization.

I've put about 5000 trouble free kilometers on them so far. I'll be ordering a lighter pair of race specific wheels from them at some point.
