I'm toying with buying an Inbred (26") frame predominantly as a commuter but also looking toward my long term aspirations for an off-road touring bike.

I'm 6ft exactly and was wondering what size people are riding? Looked at the website and a 18" is recommended.

Advice greatly received.

18 sounds about right. They have quite a long top tube. I am 5'8" and a 16 is spot on.

Im 6'4" and found my 20" inbred too small when climbing. However I now have it as a shopping bike and it's a little too long with mary bars and a short stem ๐Ÿ™‚

So Id say go 18" with an inline post, but be prepared to shuffle forward on steep climbs.

18" here and I'm a nats under 6ft. I've got 18" normal inbred, 18" 456, and a 20" original inbred. The 20" felt gate like, even for road touring.

18" ones are lovely.
