I'm 5'11" with PBH of 89.5 and ride a 61cm AHH with 35mm tires and a 61cm Atlantis with 50mm tires. The Atlantis with the 50mm tires is quite taller, but gives me enough clearance. Bigger tires, assuming they'd fit would make it uncomfortable but still rideable.
The top tube is perfect and I use 8cm stems on both. My saddle height is at 87 IIRC; otherwise it's at 77... I'm on vacation with the family and the sun is impairing my recolection... :-) René On 8/5/10, Ralph Rognstad Jr. <rognsta...@sbcglobal.net> wrote: > I am just shy of 6'2" (PBH of 89) and ride a 63cm Canti Rom, usually > with 28's or 32's.
