Re: Bike Sizes

No, my LBS said that I was right for a 19 inch frame. I do feel more
comfortable on a 16 inch frame and that's probably because I used to
ride BMX bikes (years ago) and now want to get back into biking and
feel that I have more control over the bike if I have a slightly
smaller frame. I was thinking maybe a 16 inch but yeah that's gotta
be mega small on me so maybe a 17.5 if there is such things.


Thanks
