hmm, i could be wrong, my missis is 176cm tall and it was perfect for her, also my friend tryed to ride it, he is 180cm tall, (approx 5'11) because the frame is pretty long, and has a long seatpost, it was perfect for my fellow friend. so presumably it suits people up to 5'11.

if u need more info, ill be glad to find the things out for u.

edit : supposedly it could be a medium size?

Mr. Grieves

Hi, I'm interested in this. Whereabouts are you based?

Can you put up any pictures of the actual bike?

Can you confirm the size - I'm 5'11" and reading online suggests I'd want a 19" Rockhopper frame... prob ok to go 1 size below that, but not 2...

Could view some evening this week, not free at the weekend so after that it'd have to be next week.

LOL, actually i just measured it. its 17.5 inch frame, (bb center to top of the seat tube) Didnt realize that.

I think 19 is too big for u, you'd be a 18 inch guy. i ride 18' (im 6'1) with a long seatpost and a 110mm stem.

but it's my personal preference, since im having a better control over a bike, than having a skip in between my legs.

this specialized has a long 90-100 mm stem, which would be just perfect for u and u would need no upgrades towards that. the case is your inseam length, since not every 1 has the same. my friend that tried it had a quite equal body, his upper body matched the leg length, so the frame was perfectly tall for him.

i think the best thing to do is just to have a sit on it.

Mr. Grieves

Ok, I think you're right, the size sounds good. Will get back to you about viewing, it'll prob be tomorrow or Thursday evening, if that suits you.

What a cow, she dumped her last boyfriend and took his bike that you, as her new bf, are now selling. Make sure to lock up your bike if you ever break up!

My brother bought a rockhopper a few years ago and they're a great bike. Took it on a few trails in Scotland and had great fun. Unfortunately this one isn't for me but GLWS.
