The geometry chart I have will not layout the way I hoped so I can only add the info in top down form, as noted below.. I can send you an attachment in excel spreadsheet form as well if you'd like. I have included the 2 smallest sizes.

I do work at ML/BoA! How did you know?? Psychic! Lol! ;)

I am not sure why the pink flower-ish design. Probably for variety and options? I love pink but I want my bike to look wicked fast or just plain cool. I am weak on the bike so people will need something cool to look at as I go by so slowly.
I did note Tanaka minimized the pink on the frame which is good. I like black or the red & white design that looks a bit British if I may say?

Hi Bonnie. Thanks so much for your response! I would like to get the Grace frame as it is designed for women but why oh why do manufacturers thinks that all women want PINK bikes?!!! I think there is only one distributor of Ceepo in the UK so I haven't really seen many "in the flesh". The Katans does look like a great bike. Decisions, decisions! I am only 5'3.5 (that .5 is all important!) so want to make sure the frame isn't too big. Do you know what size "small" actually is? By way, do you work at ML? I work at ML (well BoAML now!) in London.

Hi Suzanne!

I have not gotten the CEEPO frame I want yet (Venom) but am excited in anticipation! I spoke with Sara Groff privately and received some very positive feedback about how she likes the Venom. She said she reallly does enjoy the bike and it rides very nicely. I am 5'6 and she is close to my height. I believe there is a photo of her and I on my page with her CEEPO bike.

The Grace frame is infact designed for women.

The Venom and Viper frames have done exceptionally well in TT's against Cervelo and the way they are designed aerodynamically is not only for speed but also in consideration of lower back discomfort from the longer races, subsequently positioning your body to run well off the bike through seat post placement as well as in relation to the bottom bracket (as a quick casual visual form or reference) and well as energy transfer.

The carbon fiber bikes are typically very light and keep in mind that there are different types of carbon as well as different concepts of "100% carbon". CEEPO is top quality in these two aspects.

I believe Grace will fit you well as would the small size frame in the Venom and other frames. The Katana may be another great fit for you. Do you have a dealer in your area that carries CEEPO?

Best to you,
Bonnie

Cervelos have smaller frames but the wheel size is 650c.

Ceepo made those Grace frames specifically for women I think?

Comment by Suzanne Perry on October 13, 2009 at 5:07am

Really? I think that the Cervelo is going to be too big then. I thought they made a smaller frame? Do you know much about the "Grace" frame?

Comment by Jumbo on October 13, 2009 at 5:00am

Depends on the size you are getting. Cervelo's smallest frame using a 700 tire size is 52 top tube.
I highly recommend the Ceepo Venom! Very light and aero

sorry, meant to say, I am torn between a Ceepo and a Cervelo. Also, are TTs suitable bikes for the longer distances or are you better off getting a road bike?

Comment by Suzanne Perry on October 13, 2009 at 4:40am

Hi everyone. Hoping you peeps might be able to help me. I want to buy a TT and am really interested in the Ceepo brand but don't know much about it yet. What I've heard I like but I don't know anyone that actually rides one. I am between a TT and Cervelo P3. I do a fair amount of Triathlons and next year aiming to complete my first half iron. Can anyone give me some advice about Ceepo v Cervelo? I want to make a good investment with my next bike and want it to be suitable for Triathlons and half-ironmans..Eventully I hope to compelte an ironman but that's a couple of years away I think. I'd really appreciate any feeback / advice!
