Help! Trek sizing

steeA55

I'm a beginner to road bikes and have been looking to get a second hand bike for my first road bike.. I've managed to find 'ideal' frame sizes for my height and inseam length for brands such a specialized, giant, boardmen etc.

But I'm stuck when it comes to Trek (which I just so happen to have found a couple of nice ones on ebay).

I'm just short of 6'2" with an inseam leg length of 34".. the Trek website suggests a frame of 56/58/60 for my height which doesn't seem to be very specific

Can anyone give me a rough idea of what I should be looking for?
Or if you own a Trek can you let me know your height, leg length and frame size Thanks

As ever, the advice to ride different sizes holds. I'm 6'3" with a 34" inside leg and ride a 60cm Madone which fits me well. I previously had a 58cm 2.1 which always felt a bit on the small side.

I have a Trek Pilot 2.0 in a 58cm. I am 6'1" with a 33" inside leg. Bike fits great.(Pilot is a more relaxed riding position though so size might need to be different on another Trek model)

I am 6ft and have inside leg of 31" and have a Trek 2.1 56cm. I would have thought that a 56cm would be too cramped for you, I nearly went 58cm myself...

I'm 6'1" and more body than legs and I ride a 58cm if that helps.

Thanks for the help

I'm torn between a 58 and 60.. which from what you all have said I may fit either!

I think I will head to my LBS to see what sizes feel the most comfortable

Additional info'. I'm more arms and legs than body. See for yourself.

Trek 2.1 2011 size 58 and I'm 6ft 2". Perfect fit for me.
