I'm looking for one...

So far, I have been able to find the Trek 2.3, and a couple models from Ridley that are 64cm CtoT.  Cannondale and spcialized have 63cm offerings.  Any other large frames out there that you know of?

Take a hint. You should be playing basketball.

I know Leader makes some larger frames as well.  I believe it was runningfoo who built up a large Leader frame a few years ago and was quite happy with it.  I haven't seen him post in a while but it might be worth searching some of Leader posts for road bikes.

Good luck,

Shane

I got a 63 cm TreK 1000....I guess its a beginner bike though, maybe not for you.

I have a 63 cm steel frame Peugeot road bike (circa 1987). The technology may be a little dated, but it does say "Triathlon" on the top tube. Also, the seatpost uses an expander bolt instead of a clamp (more aero!).

I feel your pain brother. How tall are you? I am 6' 6" and I am having a hard time finding frames also.

Colnago makes some 64's besides the others already mentioned.

I take it that you didn't find something doable in this thread before or nothing new popped up?

This guy customizes, and he's tall - http://www.zinncycles.com/

I read somewhere that someone had a customized 64cm Cervelo made, but I'm guessing that the price would not be cheap.  I would think you would have to check out the local seller and they would contact corporate.

As I recall, that was a tri bike thread.  I'm looking for a pure road bike this time around, which have 64-64cm options..

I'm still here!

I've built Leader frames in both Tri and Road geometry and have been very happy with the quality for the price.  I did build up a 65cm road frame that was a bit longer in the top tube than any other stock frame I could find at the time.  PM me if you need any more info about the frames.

Main problem I always have is that the headtube stays too short on all these sizes. I went custom with serotta for road bike and cervelo p2c 61cm has a very tall headtube that works well for us tall ones.
