Bigfella - that bike is outstanding.....

Many thanks, I nearly cried when I made a couple of tiny chips on the frame putting it together. Luckily my car is also British Racing Green so I have a touch up pen, although its metallic (frame is a solid colour) its hardly noticeable.

jeez, I can think of some bike shops that would have wanted to put you on a 58cm frame, but they probably couldn't envisage head tubes the length of yours either:biggrin:

I guess a sale is a sale. I know its a big frame but I can handle it!

I'm quite short at 6ft 2, my steely is a 60cm and my Dolan is a 59cm with sloping top tube! A 58cm which I tried is just too small, you feel all cramped up!

course you can, I'm 6'1" and ride a 60cm steel frame, fistfull of seatpost, bars on a level and comfy as hell:biggrin: I'm sure it's not as agile as some, or as nippy as others, but then nor am I and nor will I be.
