How tall are you?
6' tall with 33.5" inseam

Since you're 4" shorter and with a 1/2" shorter inseam I don't suppose
I'll have any problems.


being 4" taller 6'4" tall and 34" inseam and having longer legs will
mean you will have more radical changes than I did. If you were shorter
the shorter crank arms will may be more beneficial all the way around.
I am not sure I understand what you mean by not having any problems.
What problems were you thinking of?


The crank length is shorter for Tom relative to his leg length. His
knees will undergo less articulation for the same length crank than yours.
