1.91m Tall - Is a large frame big enough for me?

[Violater]

Thanks for the reply guys.

I'm then looking for a alternative

Will probably have to buy new - XL bikes are like like hens teeth.

Should I start a new thread?

Merida I'd say. I have the large big 9 300 and I am 1,85m. Very comfy, great frames and decent bang for your buck

Alternatively - this Mongoose is also a option

I'm 1.91m tall with a inseam of 89cm

 

I'm 179 with 84cm inseam and ride a Large Zuma, so would say no.

I have an inseam of 86cm and I ride XL bikes. I am the same height as you though.

 

IMHO you will be to big for that bike, especially a 26" bike. If you do take it you might have to put on a really long stem and that puts a lot of weight over your front wheel. Not that great for going downhill fast or with a lot of control.

 

So hang in there and get yourself an XL whenever you can.

 

Good luck

I am 194cm and ride XL frame.

Not too sure you should look a 26r based on your size

Wait for an XL bike, while they are not readily found they also do not sell quickly so you can negociate.
