Sorry, but the Colnago geo's (V1-R, c60 ) are almost endurance ones in some sizes! A 54s (for a 1,8m ish person) has a stack of >58 cm and a reach of +/- 38,5cm . Being only a little less relaxed as a Giant Defy of Scott Solace and have basicly more than 1cm more stack and 1 cm less reach as the more racy models from Giant and Scott.

1 size bigger looks like a better starting point, but has to be taken with a grain of salt, we haven't seen the OP poster in person :oops:

Does anyone know whether there is enough clearance with the rear brake on the V1-R frame to use a second gen Stages power meter?

@delorre...that's because a 54s is not a 54 TT but a 58 effective top tube. A Cannondale Evo, which generally has pretty low stack, is 58.4cm for that size.

Where do you get that from? Just checked again and a 54s has an effective TT of 55 cm, horizontal 56,5, deff. not a 58 frame!! Reach remain short on the 'larger sizes', I should take a 52s the get the right stack, but a 13cm stem to get reach right. Or a 54S with at least a -10° stem and the flattest headset I could find. A Supersix used to be A LOT more agressive. The new ones are less extreme.
