If this is discussed elsewhere, please link me to it. I would think this is a common issue in Japan.
I called quite a few shops in Tokyo and Yokohama and couldn't find any road bikes over 54cm. In the states I would never buy a bike with out test riding it, but I guess that is what you have to do in Japan if you need a bigger size bike? Get the best fitting you can and order the needed size?
I even called Riteway distributors and they may or may not have a 56cm at their stand in the Triathalon in Odaiba on the 17th. They don't think anyone is stocking that size bike. I have only seen a cannondale at a Y's once that was over 54cm.
I will be in Tokyo the next four days hitting up bike shops so if any one has suggestions I would really appreciate it. I'm looking for a carbon road bike.
