[#1863708]

Chainreaction are selling Ragley Ti frames off for a little over £1000, which is IMO an amazing deal, but what size do I aim for? Having not thrown even a leg over the 16" will it be too small for someone 5' 11"?

I tested an 18" and loved pretty much most of it, the only thing I had doubts about was the length of the seat tube and how low I could get the saddle.

The ti ragley is prob the worse ti HT I have ever ridden. Take away the hype and its a fridge to ride.

I've got 16 inch and the same height... You just end up with a bit mire seatpost showing... I'd worry more about the top tube length...

Blacklug - interesting comment, what was it you didn't like?

Lyons, I think you're right about which is the more important measurement. I'd be happy with the top tube length based on experiences of riding other bikes with a 23" TT.
