Recommended Posts

There always seems to be some confusion regarding the correct frame size when it comes to compact type frames.  Again this has cropped  as I am trying to sell a bike.  Below is the table suuplied by "Giant".  Remember this is not carved in concrete and should be used as a guideline.  I personally ride a medium frame and am 6" (1.81 m) tall.
