    No to small, you would be looking around a 56 depending on your body shape maybe a 54

    I'm 5'11"3/4, I ride a 56cm, I was between 56cm and 58cm when choosing. 56cm would be typical for your height.
    I used to just ride my bike to work but now I find myself going out looking for bigger and bigger hills.

    Agreed with the above i am just under 5`7" and a 52 suits me or a 54 with a 80 mm stem at a push.

    Exactly the same with me, same height same frames I went for 58 and very pleased - sizing does vary from frame to frame and between manufacturers but no way is that bike right for you OP

    Fellas - this is a spam post. If you click on 'quote' you will see a failed attempt to post a spam online pharmacy link into the OP. I reported it a couple of days ago, but the mods don't seem interested.
