Question Dawes audax supreme

Can anyone help?
I am looking for a road bike to make the 32mile round trip to work a couple of times a week and have seen a new 2007 Dawes audax supreme on ebay in a 57cm size at £300 off the list price, and wonder whether anybody knows whether this size would suit my six foot body with 33inch inside leg?
Any help would be great as I cannot try the bike for size before I purchase.
Cheers
John

Default Re: Dawes audax supreme

I think you'd be happier with a 59 but could ride it.

I am 6' and 34" and picked up a used Peugeot with 22" seat tube and top tube, measured center-to-center. It feels a bit cramped. I think if it was a 57, I could make do with a longer stem. The seat height is fine.

If that audax is not a drop bar bike, it will be much less of a problem.
