Aaron S asked:
I found a 2004 Trek 1000 road bike for $325, the frame is 54 cm. Is this a good price? My inseam is 33 inches, and I'm about 5' 10 to 5' 11...would this bike fit me well? Every chart shows a 54 cm frame as just big enough or a little too small, but is that a big deal? How much difference does one or two cm make?

Price is ok if it’s in nice shape. Sold for about $700 new. But it’s a low end entry level bike.
I’d never buy anything I could’nt sit on first.
Your correct, it smallish but I know several guys your height that ride that size, it works well for them. So I can’t be sure but it might work out for you.
Good price for the bike if it’s in very good shape.
