Trying to decide between these two beauties. Price is almost the same with the Litespeed being $400 more. No LBS's have either in stock for me to try. Geometry looks very different with the BMC being more low and lean. BMC would be a 55 and Litespeed would be a 57. I'm 6'0.5" with a 33" inseam. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Although I am a Sram fanboy, I would go with a BMC 55 frame at your height and inseam. This assumes you have good flexibility.

BMC 55 would be too small for you, I am 5'10", my BMC is 54, I have to use setback 20mm seatpost and 120mm stem.

FYI.....I am your height and have a BMC SLC01 size 55 and find it perfect.
