    It us difficult to just compare manufacturers frame sizes as on manufacturers 61cm frame can be bigger than anothers 62cm frame, the are no overall standards.

    The best simple comparison is the frame, reach and stack measurements. Get these right and you will be fine, at 6ft4 you will have no problems getting a road bike to fit you.

    Hi Paul,
    Can't comment on the bikes you have mentioned but I have had a sizing issue with bike sizes varying widely between brands.
    Would definitely recommend actually trying a bike in the flesh as I had to.I resorted to a 4 hour round trip to make sure the sizing was right.

    Regards

    Phil
