i'm 5'2 so im pretty short and i've been running a 20.25 fit wif frame but im starting to feel to cramped on it, I got 8.75 bars to try to make it feel bigger but it just feels unbalanced now. i'm thinking I should get a 20.5 top tube? I want a frame that is under 5 pounds if possible and I'd like a short chainstay. I want a MID bb if possible and I reaally want chrome, which frame do you recommend?

At 5'2 i would put you in a 20.25 or 20.5, personally id lean more towards the 20.5
If your looking for a cheaper route try a longer reach stem if you have you don't already have one.

It's rad when I see short dudes riding 21 or longer frames .....I remember years ago watching Matt Desson riding a 1664 contest when he was tiny yet the dude went the fastest and did the biggest transfers of the comp on what looked to be at the time a bigger frame.......get a 21 inch

I've been from 5' to 5'2" in almost 3 years now and have always rode 20.5" TT. I may possibly try 20.75" but I would suggest not to go further unless you've actually tried a setup in person.

20.5 seems better for our height
