Frame aesthetic questions
Moderator: robbosmans
I have a few quick questions about the aesthetics of different frame sizes.
We can all agree that large traditional frames--horizontal toptube--look weird, and the optimal size is a 52-56, right?
My main question is that does everyone agree that small sloping frames look terrible, while large sloping frames look better than their traditional frame brethren?

Chances are very low that everyone will agree on any aesthetic issue.

Eric is right. But just to answer the two questions initially asked, in no particular order... No, and No.

I'm on 57-58cm frames. Like a horizontal or near horizontal top tube. Totally disagree with OP on the compact frame in my size. Thought it looked pretty weird.

There's sometimes a buggy.
How many drivers does a buggy have?
One.
So let's just say I'm drivin' this buggy...
and if you fix your attitude you can ride along with me.
