I asked seller some more about this listing: http://chicago.craigslist.org/bik/114221625.html Don't know if he will ship (it's in Chicago area)

He responded to my questions about Frame dimensions and dents/dings as follows:

(note dimensions carefully cm not equiv to inches given.. Also note he includes cable housing in standover height)

"This is a 54 cm measured center of bottom bracket to top of top tube (center to top). The top tube is 54 cm measured from center of seat tube to center of head tube. The stand-over height is 31" or 81 1/2 cm including the cable housing running along the top of the top tube. Standover was measured from ground below bottom bracket straight up to top of top tube. No dings or dents. Many, many scratches in paint, however.".... (more followed on invitation to see etc>)

higher standover than I expected. Others may have interest-
