Bike Sizing :(

[Taita]

I'm struggling to find anywhere near me that sells Specialized bikes.

I quite fancy this one under the R2W scheme, I'm 5 ft 6 / 7.

What size do I need. Think I may have asked this before

Thanks,
T

Where are you exactly? Harry Halls in Manchester sells Specialized, as does a place in Bury.

Just realised I forgot to post the link to the bike I wanted!

Does it come with (decent) tyres?

Goto a shop and try them!

You is a girl? Usualy Girls have longer legs/shorter body so girl frams are built different. But my wife's got a mans trek as it fitted ok.

Inside leg (crotch to floor in socks) - 14 or so for a quick what size frame guestimate.

You need the 51cm.

Just about to fill in the form, any last suggestions? And I can just pick gloves and lid off the website too?

Good sizing guide here: http://www.pistonheads.com/xforums/topic.asp?h=0&a...

please also remember that as well as the seat tube measurement - the top tube measurement can also be just as critical for comfort!

Best see a professional IMHO!
