Bike for a big lad?

How tall is he? I'm about to sell my Specialized Crosstrail, which is a nice bike.

Steer away from BSO's and cheap rubbish - Buy cheap, buy twice once, then never cycle again!

FTFY!

Indeed. I abide by that religiously. The last bike I got before my Carrera was a £200 BSO from JJB. Didn't last long at all.

Around 6'1, 6'2 or so. About a 33in inside leg I think. Epsom is a fair way though from where we live unfortunately. How much are you asking for it?

Epsom is pretty close to me, though, if it would suit someone around 5' 11".

Might be on the large side for him. I'm 6'3, and it's only just small enough for me. Haven't decided how much to ask - I've only just decided to sell it, as I don't really ride it any more.

As above, definitely too big for you. It's the XL frame size.

It was just a rough estimation - i'm not actually sure what year is it?

2010. It's the Expert I think (will double check later) with hydro discs.

Cheers, if it's a good price I'm sure he'll be interested.

I'll let you know as soon as I've given it a look over and made a note of the scratches.
