I'm really interested in this bike https://www.donedeal.ie/bicycles-for-sa ... e/12236890, the problem is I'm 6ft tall, I think the frame is 17.5 is this too small for me or will it not be too bad?
Do you guys think the bike is good for the price? I think I can negotiate a little lower.

Whether it fits or not depends on your particular shape, but it will probably be too small unless you have long legs for your body height (and therefore a shorter body needing a shorter bike).
Its a rather poor spec, roughly equivalent to a Carrera Vulcan, I can't see how much is being asked for it, but anything over £120 and I'd say it's poor value.Currently riding a Whyte T130C, X0 drivetrain, Magura Trail brakes converted to mixed wheel size (homebuilt wheels) with 140mm Fox 34 Rhythm and RP23 suspension. 12.2Kg.0 -
€500 for that is absolutely terrible. It's way overpriced.
Most probably too small. I'm 6'1" and I'd be wanting the 21" to get enough top tube length.Transition Patrol - viewtopic.php?f=10017&t=130702350 -
You can buy a new Decathlon/Btwin 540 for that and is a far better bike.0
