What is the recommended range for PBH on this model? I ride a 58 Appaloosa and a 61 Roadini. Would love to add a SS to the fleet.

Re: [RBW] Re: QB 62 FOR SALE
adam, re recommended range for qbeam 62, I can only tell you that I’m on the outer edge of its range, at 6-5 with a pbh of 97 plus…that said, it’s a decent ride for me, with seat and drop bars extended close to maximum. but the qbeam I’m NOT selling is my 68, which seems ideal to me. I have a friend who has ridden my 62 all day on a few occasions. he’s about six feet tall, says it fit him quite well (seat and bars lowered of course). my daughter, five ten, has ridden it and we can get the seat right, but she’s a bit stretched out on the drop bars. probably it would fit her fine with more swept back bars. tom horton -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
