  • i saw someone with same frame on critical mass t'other day, took pix and i thought it was this babe but actually wasn't :(

    i am 5'9" and ride a 53. feels lubberly.

  • 5'10, ride a 53. But my arms are so short they are actually inverted.

  • TBH, it depends on the person, but I would say a bloke my size is going to need a 56 cm, someone 6'0 a 58, and 6'5" something over 60 cm.
    But this is a rough guide, depending on the bike and the person.

  • 6' riding a 56cm here.

  • 5'11" and ride 53". It's small, but manageable and responsive.

  • 5'10, ride a 53. But my arms are so short they are actually inverted.

  • his BIN was £510 before i got bid on, he must be dissapointed!

  • raleigh team replica by the looks of it. Most raleighs are dead common and not that great, but I think this was one of their nicer quality road bikes. Would be a lovely bike if it was left as stock, shame it got killed.

  • 6' riding a 56cm here.

    5'8" and riding a 56cm, but admittedly its is too long for me really. 54 would prob be perfect.

  • I have long monkey arms like a shaved wookie and little stumpy legs like a shaved ewok. i still haven't decided what frame size i should be on yet. Not a long long-ish top-tubed 54 it turns out. Well, not comfortably anyway. *slips forward on saddle and rubs sore hands.

  • 6'2", 36" inseam, 60/61cm frames.

    Is that from your Match profile..??

    are you really that tall? or does your new fashion involve heels?

    don't remember you being tall. poor memory.

  • I used to be 6' but since sorting my back out through yoga I've 'grown' two inches. :)

  • ^ You got the number for your yoga class?

  • i'm about 5'10" and my track bike is size 56 = 55,5 cm st.
    conversion is too small at 53 cm

    WOW

    hahahaha, you'll still be a little scouse cnut :)

  • hahahaha, you'll still be a little plastic scouse cnut :)

    Fixed that for you.

  • +1 to olivers comments re yoga

    I am definitely taller as a result of yoga and pilates. By improving core strength you have a straighter spine and better posture.

  • @ MT - are you serious...? fair enough, never done any TT, I was thinking more along the day-to-day bike fit, I'm only 6'1" and would feel a bit cramped on anything less than 59cm. Horses for courses I gess.
    Have you got a short torso?

    I´ve got a long torso, I´m 6´2" and I cannot ride anything bigger than 57cm, standover height always a bitch.
