Wanted: small road frame

Hello! I'm in the market for a small road frameset with horizontal drop outs, with enough space for fenders. My standover is about 29- 29.8, and I would need something with a short top tube as well, somewhere about 520 cm and whatever that converts to in inches. My current frame is a little too long for me :(

Thanks Julie! I think I may be fine with my road frame. I believe the problem lies in carrying too much weight on my back, but we'll see. I'm always in the market for something new!

OW! An '88 RB-1! My '89 was my favorite bike; alas, it got trashed in an unfortunate dooring incident. Shee-ittt. If that were 12cm bigger, I'd probably buy it myself...

Not sure of the size but I know that the frames built for a 700 rear 24 front are usually made to fit small lady riders and still keep good geometry. Definitely worth a look if you are in the market for a small road bike, and it's all crazy 80's up in your shit, yo:

I was going to post this today, good to see this thread waiting for me:
A patient asked me about bikes-- her daughter is getting into triathalons-- she's 12, about 5'2 or 5'3-- seems to me a road bike with tri-bars would make more sense than trying to track down a dedicated tri-bike in that size, but it sounds like daughter is asking specifically for a tri-bike; she's hoping not to spend a lot of money. Any leads appreciated. Needs to be something safe, not a fixer-upper or perpetual nickel-and-dimer.

Hell all, I'm also looking for a 42 - 49cm frame for my girlfriend. Or a built up bike if it's in good condition.
