gthang

6'4 ....20"

daniel_b

5ft 10", 34" inside leg, ride a 17" Marin, which equates to a 19" frame really.

wheelbuckler

6' 5" and a GT size L frame (think its around a 20" frame. I like the clearance over the top tube. Protection for the family jewels

milkywhite

6'5"

19.5" frame

I tried the 21" and it just felt too cumbersome. I just ride with a long seat post extended nearly all the way out and use 2.5" rise bars. I've not found it a problem at all, and like the standover clearance it gives me.

I do get a sore back sometimes, but I think that should be largely cured by changing my behemoth 120mm stem for something like a 90mm.

Managed to save future mini me's by stepping over the handlebars during a downhill crash at weekend. I advise everyone to get a frame slightly smaller than required!!

Was a little bored over my cup of tea:

Seems MTBers are tall people!

survey size 47

average height of 6'1"!

UK average height for guys on 2002 was 5'9", so that's a huge skew!

Incidentally, average weight for guys was just under 80kgs. That's not good to hear :shock:
Anyone want to own up? :?

impished

5'8 (some of us don't like to be average )- 16in HT / 18in FS

WILSTOKES

5'9" & ride a medium (17.7") Commencal frame. Seems spot on.

pemsey

6' 1" on a good day, 31" inside leg - at a stretch - and arms like a frikkin' orangutan. Fat bloke too so I ride a Large Giant Yukon which seems Ok - but if I get another bike I'll probably drop down to something like a 18 or 19" frame for a bit more chuckability off road. The large is pretty comfortable for miles on the road though ...decisions,decisions!

6ft - 19" Frame

I don't know how some people weigh so little. I'm 105kg with not too much fat on me. God knows what I'd weigh if I was a fat fecker. It's not like I even work out much.

Tell me about it. I'm still wearing the same size waist trousers (36") as I was at school, I'm the same height, I'm just 4 or 5 stone heavier. I'd love to be back under 100kgs, but I'm usually 103 - 105. We'll be deep in it if they introduce the weight limit for passengers on planes! :evil:

Matteeboy

11.5 stone here (and 5'8") or about 72kgs.
I was 12.5 stone (serious weightlifting for many years) but it looked silly and slowed me down so upped the cardio and lost some weight.
28" waist - been the same since I was about 18!

105kg is damn heavy! :shock: I feel for your poor bikes!

lunaeventer

If you get bored again - what is/was the average height for us girls??

Dohboy78
