Wanted: Geared Road Bike for 6'3 male

Posted on
  • Hello,

    First time poster so jump in if I messed anything up.

    I caught the cycling bug recently on a flat bar El Cheapo road bike in Australia. Back in England I'd like to get my first road bike for weekend rides with mates who are into cycling (obviously trailing from behind of course).

    I'm 6'3 and a friend of a similar stature said to look for a bike size around 56-60cm. I'm aware it changes a bit between brands however. I've been told to look for Tiagra or 105.

    Not sure at budget at this point, but would be interested to see what you have or any pointers for a newbie looking for a bike.

    Let me know if there are any details I missed.

    Located in Milton Keynes.

    Thanks in advance!

  • Ancient thread, but this would be a great frame to build your bike around. https://www.lfgss.com/conversations/296719/#comment13346969
    Maybe he still has it? He’s worth asking cos he’s tall like you, might have something else.

    You could fit a decent non-electronic groupset around it, even squeeze a muduard in if that’s your bag.

    Happy hunting.

  • Thank you @Skülly, I'll take a look!
