I think I remember seeing this before--someone here should confirm the
size and snap it up!

Odd. That one came up a couple weeks ago and someone snapped it up quickly. Maybe the buyer backed out.

What evidence is there to believe that it's a 58 vs a 56? just looks
like a 58?

Yup! (I had a 56 and this looks a hair bigger at the head tube).

that sure looks like a 58. I have a 58 Ram and the size looks the same.
 
I'd be interested but I'm moving to a house with a 1 car garage  in a week with 5 bikes and a tandem. I 'm not sure I can fit the ones I have.
.... and I promised someone I would not get another bike until I make sure I can fit them into the garage.

What are you talking about?

1 car garage is at least 12x18.

that's 216 sq ft.

If you cannot fit 5 bikes and a tandem in there you're not even TRYING.

I popped into visit a friend of mine today. He was reorganizing his 1
car garage this weekend. He decided to take a head count on his bikes:
13 bikes. Some of them hung from things, some of them in a work stand,
most completely functional.

So you shouldn't have any problem at all.

Oh wait... You weren't thinking of doing something silly like putting
a car in there, are you?

Right on. I like the new Citroen Acadiane because it is about 1/2 the
width (and length) of a F150 and I can park it in my smallish 23-car
while not disturbing the bikes. But the Taurus, wide, fat thing, that
stays outside where it belongs.

my other half informed me that I can only use half the garage . Once I move in and can "show" her that they can fit and there is room for more then I'll work on more bikes.    I plan on using the ceiling,walls and anyplace else.
