I know there was a 55cm but not sure if it was the original run or not, and I believe the 52cm was from the second run.  Trying to understand how they differ in fit since one replaced the other I believe.

Thanks

I'd guess it was around 2015.  In the 'original' Betty, I would have ridden a 58.  I did buy one, but before I built it, somebody else wanted it more so I let them have it.  At the time I was buying the 58, Keven suggested I could/should wait until the 'new ones' come, because the 55 was going to be identical in every dimension, except the seat lug is 3cm lower.  It was a step towards fewer frame sizes accommodating a larger swath of people sizes.
