Hello all. A stupid thing to ask but the answers might help me decide if it is worth driving to look at a bike I've seen in the reasonably local classifieds.
I'm looking at a trek x caliber 19.5" frame. I'm 6'2 and was previously quite happy on a Gary fisher rig at 19". Any real world experience of how the trek hardtails size up? I have very long legs!
Cheers

That'll be perfect if you are normally proportioned. I'm also 6.2" and have had a few Treks in that size.

We rent those out and you are right on the cusp of the L and XL. I find them quite long in the TT so I'd ideally suggest you try one for size. Having said that, the XL is huuuuuge!

Cheers all. The geometry of the 19.5 looks right so I'll give it a go and have a look tomorrow
