This may be an obvious question but I'm 5'11 and overweight (260). What size would you recommend. First time buying a better bike so I can get fit!!

I am 5'4" and I got the small or 19" size, my toes touch the ground when I am sitting on the seat so I suggest the medium or large size for your height. Remember that you can adjust the height of the handlebars and bike seat as well. I hope that helps!

I don't think this is going to really help you, but I'm 5'1 and got XS. And it fits me perfectly!!!

I'm 5'11 and about 200 and went with the biggest size. If you're a larger guy, order the bigger size and scale down from there. Mine fits great personally.

I think a large would be fine UNLESS!!!! you have a large wind shield or panniers then you would need up go up a size, The large size fits my 20012 honda cbr1000r perfectly, for reference

It's a tall bike! I'm 5'6" and feel that is on the tall side. Would recommend a smaller bike.

I feel for you brother. It's harder to find a bike that fits you at 6ft or taller. You need to focus on how high the seat goes to get a straight leg stroke, and the distance of the seat to the handlebars to fit the length of longer arms. If its too tight, you feel crowded/uncomfortable. This bike also has some fit adjustments too.

My daughter is 45 inches and it is perfect for her. So if you want some growing room, I would go with one size up. Awesome bicycle though, I highly recommend this brand!

Yes, I'm 5'11" and weight 230 lbs. Like everyone , you might want to change the seat and and add a bottle cage, other than that it's a great bike. Have a all Alum schwinn urban crest just like this but cost around 400.00 . Biggest dif is the front shock but rides just like it!

I am 5' 10" and the bike fits fine.There are adjustments in the bike to accommodate your height, but I would be more concerned with weight - the built in shocks are not adjustable and it might be a problem if you are over (in my estimation) 220 lbs.

Im about 5'11 - 6 foot and have a 31- 32 inseam and I ride the 58cm frame. This bike is almost perfect for me but I would get a 57 if I could because the 58 seems a bit tall at times but after I got used to it, its perfect for me. I say if your legs are somewhat long/average, I would go up but I've also road a 54.5 that didn't seem too small (it was an expensive Fuji and Ive read that they are sized large) but then again, the seat was really high. If you go down, with the 54, you'll save weight but it might feel a tad too small and your seat might be a little higher than you like...It depends what you want. Personally, I would go up. How much do you weigh?

In my opinion, I would stick with the 58cm if that's what you are comfortable with. But keep in mind that every bike is different. Just because one company sizes a bike at 58cm, another company can make a 56cm and they can feel almost exactly the same. My suggestion is to measure yourself correctly then find a bike that would ideally fit to your measurements.

Honestly, you're better off getting fitted for a bike than buying one online. There are online tools for bike fitting. Diamondback on their website has a very simple tool based on inseam for getting the right frame size. I'm 6'2'' and got the XL, and honestly I would have gone for the size smaller, but it's perfectly ridable and comfortable, I just don't have much clearance when my feet are on the ground. This is most due to the very horizontal nature of the top bar, on another frame the XL would have been perfect for me.

You can go to the Diamondback site, plug in your height and inseam, and it will give you their recommendation. I'd (just about) bet if you have a 34 or longer inseam, you'd be well served with the XL. I was on the bubble, went L and sometimes wish I'd gone XL. It's a pretty decent bike. 105 is a long proven gearing system.

I am 165 cm, leg length - 95 cm. So high seat but small frame works for me. You have to find out for you self, there are many videos on youtube to help you determine size. I already had an old medium frame, mongoose cycle and it was hurting my upper body from too much leaning forward. I find upright seating is more comfortable and less tiring. Higher seat made me lean forward more on a medium size. So the standard recommendation didn't work for me. My preferred seat height is when only my toe finger can reach the earth, that is, both feet can't reach the ground simultaneously.

I am 5'5" and the bike is perfect for me. Even had to raise the seat, so I would say it would not be an issue with your height. However, the bike is longer and on the heavy side, it is one of the bigger bicycles I have purchased, so just be aware of that. But your height shouldn't be an issue, the seat can be adjusted to sit pretty low.

I think this bike will be small for you. I am 5.6 and it fits me perfectly, but I have a feeling that for someone over 6 feet it is a small bike.

go with the 24" unless you are still growing. there is some seat adjustment height in all bikes but this type of bike is an entry level one size fits most model. my suggestion would be to visit a bike shop and see if a 24 or 26 feels better to you. FYI this was purchased for a granddaughter and see is about 5'1" and it fits her fine. good luck and happy trails. the bassetfarm
