Hi
I am 26 and around 6', what frame size am I looking at for a new bike? I got told 26' but I can only find bikes with 23' frames, will that be enough?
Thnx

The 26 inch you refer to would be the wheel size - the most common mountain bike size.
As for frame size - try some out. They vary on how they are measured, so trying them out is the only accurate way.0 -
I am buying online as I have a voucher.
Would it be safe to assume 23' frame size will be okay?

Yep...you need to at least sit on it first. Generally you'd be a large but it really does vary. Ride the bike first if you can.'Happiness serves hardly any other purpose than to make unhappiness possible' Marcel Proust.0

In all honesty, I think that would be too big. It is between the 19 and 21 I'd say.0

Try it out, with your height I suspect the 19 might be fine...One day, I'm going to buy a cottage in a small village and become its idiot!0
