As a rough guide, what sort of frame size would a 6’3” person want to be looking at for a rigid 90s 26er?
Might build a mate up something and I’ve seen a nice frame that’s apparently 58cm too tube x 57cm seat tube.

I'm 187cm and my Klein Attitude is a 22":

And here's a modern bike for reference (both of these have the saddle at the correct height for me, other controls in the right place etc):

Cheers! I was so close to getting the green light to commence a 90s mtb build for my mate, but he’s ended up going for an uninspiring hybrid to commute with 🙄
I think it was me not being able to give him a firm answer on budget or timescale that did it...
