Frame sizing q

[john_p]

I tried a 20" Trek 7.5 today (lovely bike, want)
A bit confused with sizing. With the saddle set right for leg stretch, arm stretch seemed quite comfy too. I'm about 5'10. The only thing was, it was quite hard to get my foot down on the floor (stop/starting) without stretching quite a lot. Is this normal for hybrids or did I have the wrong size?

It's funny, it must be my perception. It probably stems from the fact that when I bought my current bike, I bought a frame larger than I should have (based on standover height, which leaves no "knacker gap") and I thought I'd need to lean out less on a frame of the "correct" height. But of course, based on pedal clearance, there's always going to be the same amount of height above the ground.

Now the dilemma.. Trek 7300 or 7.3 ...
