Frame size?

Will I fuck :]

I ride a 62 IRO Mark V now, I'm 6'2" and I find it very comfortable to ride. Good for those with long legs and arms.

Just wondering what size frame people ride, I'm 6'3 and currently ride a 59cm (centre of crank to centre of top tube)

6'5 and on a 58 cm frame. Bit small to be honest. Last bike was a 60 cm which was ok. 62cm would be ideal. Gotta ramp the saddle up to the max to make the ride comfortable at the moment.

6'2 and 58cm. Reckon I would benefit from an extra cm

5'5/6 53cm but with 27' wheels

Hi all,

new to the forum and probably asking a question that many newcomers do but am looking to get my self a single speed bike.

The one I am looking at has the following dimensions:

Seat tube c to c 52cm and top tube 57cm
I will be using it as a road bike and i'm 5.11

Can anyone let me know if I'm on the right lines with this size?

Thanks in advance

You need atleast a 54/55

That TT length sounds odd....57?

compact geometry and actual ST length?

Hi, thanks for the feedback, am going to check again on the size!

Fram... Cool word, I like... :)

yeah, a bit hungover so typing not so good!

Ride it first. Many many bike shops now stock SS bikes. They can also advise on sizing.

Yep, you're right, don't want to shell out for something that's not going to work for me...
Does anyone know any decent shops around london se1 for single speed bikes?

Evans on The Cut? Or Evans and an On Your Bike at London Bridge? Not sure if there are any others.

Is this some kind of convoluted advertising?

Weren't these guys getting flamed to shit the other day?

yep.

rarther harshly i thought but hey.

that is some blatantly transparrent spam tho.

hi, im 5ft 9" and after getting my first fixed, i though id need a 54cm frame but thought id check wether or not this was right?

1 - Look at the 'similar threads' section at the bottom of the page.
2 - Measure your inside leg (properly)
3 - Profit

I read somewhere you measure from tight up to pubic bone down to deck (in yr cyclin shoes I suppose) take 2/3rds of this measurement and that should be what yr lookin for.Don't take my word as gospel though-I don't believe in the big man upstairs
