I recently had a proper measuring session after which the chap at the bike shop produced a drawing with loads of lines and numbers on it. He was measuring me up for my existing road bike (which I now know is too big for me at 545mm). When I told him I was thinking about buying a TT bike he produced another drawing with different lines and numbers on. The ideal seat tube measurement for a road bike for me is 524mm (fair enough) but my ideal seat tube measurement for a TT bike is 480mm.
Quite a difference. Should you buy a smaller frame size for a TT bike than you would a road bike? Or do you think he's messed the numbers up.
Can anyone help before I spend £2k at wiggle?

If I buy the 480mm or 500mm they are too short in the top tube area + they only come with 650 wheels.
