I haven't ridden that bike, but am happy on a 60cm Cannondale CX bike. For me head tube length/front end height is the determining factor. Since cross bikes have a taller fork than road bikes, if all else stays equal or close, I can ride a CX bike several cm smaller than road. If available, look for the stack and reach dimensions; most useful dimensions when comparing bikes IMO. Or figure it out using BB drop, fork length and head tube length, and compare it to a known bike.

Have any of the taller riders tried the Ritchey Cross Breakaway in the largest size - 60cm I think?
