According to charts I should have a 56 inch frame . This bike is not offered in that size. Anyone know if I should go up-down or not at all? I'm 5.11

I typically ride a 62, but this bike maxed at 58 if I remember. Riding a smallerish frame has worked out just fine so far. However given the option if rather ride a bike a little bigger for me than small.

Cheryl,I think you should go up. I'm 5'6" and I have the smallest frame available. Good luck in your choice!

Im about 5'11 - 6 foot and have a 31- 32 inseam and I ride the 58cm frame. This bike is almost perfect for me but I would get a 57 if I could because the 58 seems a bit tall at times but after I got used to it, its perfect for me. I say if your legs are somewhat long/average, I would go up but I've also road a 54.5 that didn't seem too small (it was an expensive Fuji and Ive read that they are sized large) but then again, the seat was really high. If you go down, with the 54, you'll save weight but it might feel a tad too small and your seat might be a little higher than you like...It depends what you want. Personally, I would go up.

I would go up. I am 5'5" and I have the 54 cm. It is a little tall, but it works well for me. For someone 5'11", I know it would be a little small. I would get the 58.

That depends on if you like to sit higher or lower and how much lean you can handle into the bars. Either way you will have to adjust the seat height to find the right comfort level. From there you need to determine if you prefer riding with your chest down or up (bigger frame if down, smaller if up).Ultimately you want a bike that fits you so you don't have to adjust to it. You're increasing your risk of muscle strain and injury by not finding a perfect fit. I suggest shopping around till you find one. Just think, would you marry the first man who proposed just because you wanted to get married or would you make absolutely certain that he was Mr. Right?

I am 6.1 as well, and this is too small. I would go with bigger tires and a larger frame.

the first size (16, 18, 20) is the size of the frame. At 173 cm height you would want the 16", that is the correct size for you. As to whether or not you can ride it ... well I can't answer that for you :P

Check again, they are all 3 now available at another place... most frequent GOOGLE result and for 200 less than here. I just bought the large, and I am 5'10, but I have a 30" inseam and it fits ok and I have even had to adjust the seat up quite a bit more than I was expecting. I added a diamondback pillowtop saddle, since I am new to biking also and the saddle that it comes with was killing me. If you are mechanically adept, you can assemble the bike easily but it is good to have a REAL bike shop look it over, the box store assembled mine and it ended up scratched, with under inflated tires, the brakes squeaked, handle bars were not aligned properly, and the deraillers needed adjustment Check again, they are all 3 now available at another place... most frequent GOOGLE result and for 200 less than here.

Yes you should use a 18" frame size. We do have the 18" frame size just not offered on Amazon. I f you are interested please let us know and we will send you the 18".

This bike comes only in size 56cm. It is a good size for most people between 5'10"-6'2", so it is most likely going to be too big for you. I'm 6'0", and it's perfect.The 56cm is the length of the bar from the seat to the handlebars, so if you really want this bike, you might be able to get by with lowering the seat. You'd be stretching a little farther than ideal to hold the handlebars though.

Hey Hattie, I am almos 6.2 and this bike fits great. Yes I could of go for a little big bigger frame but if you are not one of those that need a custum made bike for thousands of dollars, I higly recomend it. I used it pretty nuch every day to ride with my dog.

Hi, It really has to do with your body size and what you are comfortable straddling. Per the Montague website - - Bike Sizing: 18in Frame: 5'3" - 5'10" Standover height 30" 20in Frame: 5'11" - 6'4" Standover height 31" ====== I am 5'7" with short legs and the 18 inch one works fine for me. The "stand-over height" of 30 and 31 inches, respectively can be a good clue. Measure the height from the floor to the top of the cross-bar on a mountain bike you feel comfortable riding (or straddling at a bike shop, if you have none). See if that offers any answers.

I have this bike and love it but I am 5'3'' and it is only an inch too high for me I think it may feel a little small if you are 6 ft. When I was looking up reviews for this bike prior to buying it many people said it was more appropriate for a woman than a man because it's not very large. Hope this helps. Good luck!

I think there is probably no issue with someone this size, I believe everything is adjustable. We bought one for my fatherinlaw. It was a good straight forward bike. He liked and so did we.

I'm female, 5'6 and about 150. I got the larger size and it is LARGE. It might be a little too much bike for you.I would recommend the smaller size. The large has a 19" frame and the smaller has a 17" frame. I do love this bike.

Hi Jennifer! I actually bought it for my best friend and her boyfriend who is 6 feet tall tested it out for me and he said it might be a little too small for him but he said since it's a 26 inch frame it might be ok. Sorry I could not be more helpful. It's a super cute bike though!

You're riding on street right? I would assume since you're looking for a road bike. I owned one for awhile. When I first got it, the rim was bent, contacted amazon, the shipped a new bike out and told me to take what I needed and ship it back. If you're tall, it may be a little to small. I'm 5ft 11 and it was fine for me. The only issue is the pedals are kinda low, so if you take a sharp turn and your foot is extended all the way your pedal will hit the asphalt. If I were you, I would save up extra $$ and get a better bike. It's a decent bike but you spend a few hundred more and get a lot better bike. You're riding on street right?

In my opinion, I would stick with the 58cm if that's what you are comfortable with. But keep in mind that every bike is different. Just because one company sizes a bike at 58cm, another company can make a 56cm and they can feel almost exactly the same. My suggestion is to measure yourself correctly then find a bike that would ideally fit to your measurements.

Hey guys. I am 5.10 and this bike is a perfect fit for me. It should be ok for people 5.7 to 6.1"

Hello, this bike is great. It is pretty quiet and a good overall bargain for the price. You should have no problem with the size of the bike. My wife is 5'4" and she is happy with it.
