it's a really well made, well thought-out endurance machine. Sizing issues aside, I love my new Domane. the showroom floors were almost completely empty due to a combination of high demand and an inability to get new bikes in-stock from Trek. I was just at 2 bike stores yesterday and it's crazy. If you have Trek dealer near by, I'd call them to find out if they have any Domanes in stock so you can see for yourself if the 58cm will work for you. I had a 58cm Trek Boone which does not have the endurance fit and compared it to my old 56cm Domane and found the head tube was the same height on both bikes (i.e., the 56cm Domane head tube was really tall.) At the height of their creativity,a local bicycle fanatic from the. What that typically means is that the head tube (vertical tube the fork goes into) is much taller on the Domane than it is on race bikes to give the rider a more comfortable, up-right position. The chart below shows TREK Bikes recommended bike sizes based on height, but there are some other factors, like arm and leg length. Featured on this site is a private collection of vintage mountain bikes, and more. I had my LBS swap-out the seat post that came on the bike with the shorter model so now I at least have some vertical adjustability in the post.īeware that the Domane has an "endurance fit" which makes them a little odd compared to other race bikes. What makes that even more ridiculous is that according to the size chart, I should be riding a 60cm frame?!?! If I had purchased a 60cm frame the seat post wouldn't work at all. What I find absolutely crazy is that with the stock seat post, I had the seat as far down as it could possibly go and that barely worked for me! I've never had that problem on a 58cm frame before. I'm 6'1" tall with a 33" inseam and ride a 58cm frame. I think you're right in that Trek's size chart for the new Domane is very, very odd to darn right wrong. Is a trek typically sized up one size? Looking at the domane.
58cm for someone 5'10.9-6'0.8 and 60 cm for someone 6'0.8-6'2.8Īs a 6'2 person my current CAAD10 is 58cm and seems spot on. Hi! I'm looking at Trek's size chart and it looks like Trek reccommends about a size bigger for given height/weight than what I'd expect.
