Veteran  242   Sutherlin |  Subject: TALL FOLKS, 6'4" and up, what do you ride...tri bikeJust wondering what kind of tri bikes the tall ones are riding and what sized.... Only finding one or two companies that make a 61, a few more that hit 60, but most are 58ish. Looking in the 24oo-2800 range.... Thanks, Tall guy...LOL! |

It was the only one I could find that didn't require a custom frame. It fits really well and that frame should work for you and I absolutely love it. |

Expert 1416 San Luis Obispo, CA | Subject: RE: TALL FOLKS, 6'4" and up, what do you ride...tri bike X3 on the Cervelo. I'm 6'4" 190 lbs (34" inseam) and ride the Cervelo P2C - 61cm. LOVE It! Roadie is a 63cm Felt. I thought I would have to go custom since I never saw a 63cm TT/Tri bike, but the Cervelo fits great! |
