Hi Frank -

As a new Ram owner with a PBH of 88 (as measured by Grant) and a couple of 
60 cm frames (and one 62), I can say this frame is probably too small for 
you. But that statement is subject to your preferences. My son is two 
inches taller than me and he rides bikes with seat tubes of 57 and 58 cm.

Thanks,


Corwin
