    Not too bad ;)

    Is that saddle set at the right height for you, or haven't you adjusted it to the right height yet?

    Looks like a VERY large frame size.

    Saddle needs to go up somewhat, is large but there is plenty of clearance.

    still looks like a massive frame to me. You must be 6"4' or over I guess :shock:

    Lol, only 6'2"
    Do prefer larger frames and have long thighs. Bike is 21" frame, smaller frames just felt too cramped - all a matter of style I guess.
