Then it should fit you fine.
Now go and bid like a loan shark.
I dunno, medium seems a bit small for 6 foot.
Even though it's a bit cunty, I suggest going to your local Evans and trying out the sizes.

All depends on where you want your contact points to be, no?.

I am 5'10" and ride a medium charge, with a shorter stem than the stock version, so you should be sweet on a medium

Just quickly - I'm going to buy a new saddle. Not sure which one yet, but will it be comfortable?
Cheers in advance.

I'm 5'5 and ride an Xsml. It still comes up pretty big. But I am a shortarse.
Changed the saddle out for a Charge Spoon, which is hard but comfy-ish. -

I'm 35 so need a large, my 7 year old isn't quite big enough for a small charge, I hope that helps.

the charge bikes have fucked up sizing, the medium has a 54.5cm tt which is what a ride (5'9") but a 59cm st which i doubt i could stand over without crushing my gooch.

hi!
i bought a large plug about 2 months ago.
didnt have too much time to ride it unfortunately.
anyway. i think that the bike is a bit too large for me as i get pain in my wrists after riding a while and i have the feeling that i lean very much forward. i tried medium and arge when i bought the bike but couldnt feel much of a difference and the staff (evans) recommended a large bike (i am 186 cm which should be 6.10).
is there any way to get the handle bar a bit closer and/or higher?
what parts would i have to buy to do so and where can i buy them. is there anything i should know before (dont want to spend money on incompatible parts)?
sorry for asking all the noob questions but i have no knowledge of bikes. used to ride a vespa but started putting on weight... . -

Just get a shorter stem, go to your bike shop (reputable one, not those kind whose staff know shit), and ask them you want to try a shorter stem.
check if your saddle's not too high too.

Can't seem to find the answer to this anywhere, so is there any reason why a Cinelli Alter stem wouldn't fit a 2010 Charge Plug?
I know there are probably better stems out there, but I quite like the look of the Alter, although if anyone has any advice/serious pros & cons I may reconsider.
