i'm going to ask what may seem to be a very stupid question...but please bear with me Confused

 

what sort of stature range could be expected tp be comfortable on a size 53 frame?

 

i know there are other factors involved....just looking for approximate.....

Very basic rule of thumb is tht the frame size should approximately match the distance from your crotch to the floor.  This is only a rule of thumb though, and many other factors come into play when matching a rider to a bike.

Check this size guide, taken from the Scott website a few years back. May only be relevant to compact frames (Scott in particular) but it should give you an idea...
