Designs :: Road Racing :: Stock Geometries

Waterford's Road Racing geometries serve the rider who competes in America's typical blend of criteriums and long circuit courses. The fast, neutral steering gives you great manuverability and richly rewards the good bike handler.

  • Stock geometries run in one centimeter increments from 47 cm to 68cm. Split the numbers to figure on the exact dimensions of your frame (A 57cm frameset has a 56.5cm top tube, and a 73 or 73.5 degree seat angle). By the way, there's only a 3-5mm difference in setback for that 1/2 degree change in seat angle. Made to measure geometries are included with R-33, 2200 and R-14.
  • Seatmast length refers to the distance between the center of the bottom bracket shell to the top of the lug ("center-to-top"). Subtract 2.0cm (for R-33), 1.4cm (for the 2200) or 18cm (for the R-14) to determine the equivalent center-to-center measurement. For example, a 56cm center-to-top 2200 is the equivalent to 54.6cm center-to-center.
  • Wheelbase/standover height are rounded to the nearest 5mm or 0.5 inches.
