You need to go and try a few. Don't be surprised if you end up with a 19", or even a 17" - it depends on (mostly) the angle of the top tube. What matters is that it's comfortable to you. -- simon@jasmine.org.uk (Simon Brooke) http://www.jasmine.org.uk/~simon/ I shall continue to be an impossible person so long as those who are now possible remain possible -- Michael Bakunin |
