Hello again,
I'm sorry for opening a new thread for this. I am going to buy my new bike next week and just want to make sure I am ordering the correct frame size. Since I am a newbie, I don't quite understand these things, I've seen people say "you need to have this much inches between you and the frame when you are standing up over the bike" but this probably wouldn't apply to all frame shapes... Anyway, I like the Carrera Vulcan, and they only have the 18" in my local store, however I think I may need the 20". And since they don't have them on display, they're not even in the same store, I probably can't try them to see the difference.
I am 6 feet tall, should I go for the 20" frame? Let me know If I need to take other measurements.
