Interesting thanks - interesting they do a M, M/L, L
M/L would probably be the one I'd want as a 6'er for a bit more stability, but it does imply a Medium will fit a 6'er at the upper-end which is surprising, but true
I'm one of those people that are right in between bike sizes most of the time with some 19" frames being a tad small and 20" starting to feel a bit large.
As you say though its all down to upper and lower body ratio, plus geometry of the various maufacturers), plus chosen stem length and angle helps us as we get older.
Great to learn Fat City Cycles have such a sensible approach to sizing in many ways, its not a wonder they are so sought after.
