Bike sizing Fix it, repair it, how do I do it, what's the best part to use, and now: how do I get there?

Quick: I have a friend who is 6'2". What's a good sized frame? 60CM?

[Alex]

I'd go bigger, but there is variation depending on how they want it to fit. I'm 5'10" and ride 57-59cm frames. My 6'2" friends usually ride 62-64cm frames.

These guys have a decent online fit calculator. In their fitting I prefer bikes with the "french fit" or "eddy fit" (most of my bikes are kind of in between those two).

im about 6'1 and i ride a 58 usually. sometimes id like to be on a 56. 60's feel too big for me.

depends on how it's adjusted i guess, and his exact measurements. but id say stay in the 58/62 range.
