I'm 6ft 1in, but I've got stumpy little legs (32in inside leg), my 19inch P7 fits like a glove.

I'm 6'2" and have just bought a 19". Seems spot on.
Running Revs 140 u-turn. Hope M4, 100mm stem. Hope PROII hubs with Dt ? rims (5.3 I think) Most of the rest is bog standard XT. Weighs approx 27lbs.

It's a nice bike. I'd forgotten how much fun a HT could be.

I'm 5'9" 17" frame, 50mm stem, they are compact but you can chuck it around, the 100mm Rebas have gone and stuck on 140mm Vans which have transformed it.

This is a 2008 frame, recently had trouble with the slidy dropout problem (bolts breaking) don't let that put you off orange have new designed dropouts on the new frames (3 bolts not 2)

I looked at a 2010 19" model yesterday and it looked to be the right size for me at 6 ft 2. Probably at the top end of what Orange recommend mind.

I'm 5'10 (31" inside leg) with a 19" '03 (decent price s/h off a 6ft mate who was going travelling).
Length's fine but more seatpost flex would be nice. It's no huge deal - but given the choice I'd go for a 17".
