JackC123 Posted May 5, 2009 Report Share Posted May 5, 2009 A t-pro would do you good.Tarty bikesThats a pro...If you are quite tall I recommend looking at the 26" section. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirty-boi Posted May 5, 2009 Report Share Posted May 5, 2009 Thats a pro...If you are quite tall I recommend looking at the 26" section. See I'm 6ft 1" and 14st and I feel more comfortable on a 20" than a 26".26"s make me feel like I'm riding a 30ft penny farthing.I think the best bet is to try the 2 and see what you prefer before buying.

Jitters Posted May 5, 2009 Report Share Posted May 5, 2009 26"s make me feel like I'm riding a 30ft penny farthing.Haha, not the same, but a funny pic wither way.Back to topic, I'm 5'11" and found stock to suit me much better, so as suggested, try 'em both out if you can.

dirty-boi Posted May 5, 2009 Report Share Posted May 5, 2009 I spent my whole youth on a BMX almost every day never really had a mountain bike so the 26" just feels huge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
