BILL! I went and rode the 18 and the 19 last week cause I was worried about buying the 19…

I am 6’2″ and the 18 was small-ish, it felt like I was right on the headset,not good. too close.

the 19…sweet, right where it should be. 19 all the way for your height

do the 19! Jason’s right

Bill… it’s always difficult to judge sizing without putting it all into context. What bike do you ride and what size is it?

Just an FYI… the top-tubes on these are pretty short. An 18″ will be too small for you. I’d go with a 19″ for sure if I were you, but again… difficult to judge.

The top-tube on the 19″ is almost 24 inches, which won’t be “stretched out”, but it shouldn’t be too compact either. Just my $0.02.

Can anyone provide info about sizing?
I am looking at buying an 18inch model. I’m 6ft and 80kg and like a cockpit that is not too compact for climbing. Does that size sound about right?

Unfortunately there are no Rocky Mountain dealers around here, so I’ll be buying untested.
