  • Then it should fit you fine.

    Now go and bid like a loan shark.

  • This thread is useless without pics (preferably with subject against/amongst some drapes)

    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

  • Thanks for the help guys I think i'm going to go look at it since i'd be collecting anyway and decide then

  • don't do it

  • 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.

  • Charge bike have shorter top tube than your average frame size, that's it.

  • 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.

  • thanks for the quick answer. could you recommend a shop in london? living in the e2 area.

  • 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.

  • Lemme know if you decide to nab one, I've got a black one for sale... Just like the one on the right...

  • 1" Stem does not work with 1 1/8" Steerer.

  • inverse shim.

    next

  • okay on to plan b...

  • Actually cinelli are re-releasing the alter soon, and it will be available in 1 1/8th

  • Fugly. Next!
