It would be until you suddenly realize that standover height is a matter of personal opinion...and I really really really should leave it to that unless Dale loves discussions about human anatomy including manipulation and comparisons of human anatomy.

You'd think just reading the tape would be the end of it. In all my years, I've tried C-C, C-T along seatube, C-T Vertical, Standover, etc....and I have found in the long run that C-T along seatube just seems to work the best.
I just tell folks going for a track bike to go 2-3 cm down and things work out just fine. Of course, actually being there and trying out the bike to begin with beats all.
