Gonna order today (finally) Which size do I need for 1.78? If a look at for example roseverzand, I should take the 45 cm. Wil this be enough with a 35 cm wcs seatpost? I want to ride competition so it must be sporty and comfort is second.

i'am 1,78m, my legs ~85cm, i ride an 18" frame which is almost too small. my ritchey pro 350 seatpost is at max. if your legs are longer than mine, you might have to go with the 19" frame. in the case of cycle concept, the big advantage is the fact that the increments between frame sizes are small.
another thing to consider is top tube length. the measurements given at http://www.cycleconcept.de/frames/kinesium.htm are most likely horizontal and not actual lengths, but i'd ask them to be sure.

I decided to order the 19" it is still only 48cm and that should be ok. My current bike has about 16 cm seatpost and the frame is 53 cm. So the 48 cm frame will give me 21 cm of seatpost. I think thats the best.
