Nah, doing better than that - off to Afan and will be trying at least one 29er... 🙂
Beside, I reckon your Sultan would be too big for me (not to mention that there's no way I'd be spending that kind of money on a frame!) but I do appreciate the offer.
Convincing reason for 29er and tall people - big framed bikes look better in proportion with bigger wheels. That part of the reason I got a 29er as the proportions are sort of the same as an 18" 26er. Having said that at 6' 6" my daily Brompton and I looks way out of proportion!
6"4.
XL Niner MCR
XL Niner Jet (waiting for replacement frame)
Obviously proper wheels
Seven Axiom Road bike sloping top tube 58cm C to C, seat tube 60.9cm top tube.
I also have a 62cm pearson touche road bike good size and proper size wheels
Nobody mentioned looking at Giant's range of bikes yet? 😀
I'm only 6ft 1" but on a 20" 456 and a 61cm hybrid for commuting.
My mate who is a good 4" taller can't ride my bike as he can't reach the pedals. Either I have very long legs (34" kecks) and a short body or he has very short legs and a long body, so its not all just about actual height chaps.
