steve@banbury-trials Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 your best bet is to try other peoples bikes on a big group ride,most people are friendly enough to let you have a go.steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonMack Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 I'd recommend something with about a 600mm reach, that's what mine is on my XTP and I'm 6ft spot on. Check tarty for measurements, ride some bikes on group rides and you should be good to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Endohopper Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 Having selected a frame that's in the right kinda ballpark as far as length is concerned , you can always fine tune height and reach with careful choice of stem and bars .
