Gravel Fit Tip: Gravel riding requires a balance of long-distance comfort and off-road stability. A properly sized gravel frame will often feature a slightly taller headtube than a pure road bike, reducing lower back fatigue during rougher descents.
What to Do if You Are Between Colnago Sizes?
If your height falls squarely on the borderline between two sizes for the Colnago C68 Gravel, don’t panic. This is a normal occurrence in bike geometry. Here is how to decide which way to go:
Choosing the smaller option gives you a shorter reach to the handlebars, creating a more upright riding position. Opting for the larger frame extends the wheelbase, delivering a highly stable ride at high speeds.
How to Measure Your Height for an Accurate Fit
Finding the perfect frame size requires precision. We highly recommend measuring your current barefoot height rather than guessing. Stand flush against a doorframe, ensure your shoulders are relaxed, and use a tape measure from the floor to the top of your head to get the exact figure. Use a flat-edged object or book resting horizontally on your head to mark the point accurately against the wall before running a tape measure to the floor.
