For the taller riders among us..

That looks like a 22" .. huge frame. Can't be many of those around.

I recall late 80s early 90s a lot of people bought frames which were too big as they were used to that tall look from racing bikes.

Heres the translation,looks bigger than 22"
here you get a mountain bike from ca.1997/98

the mandatory work like fat tax rate and possibly new trains have to do it yourself

Go for it Martin !

 

[Zas-Kar]

Is those 24 inch wheels?

 

[Martin]

well, it's a bit too large for me. 20" Gt size fits ok.


The rust on the BB area worries me..

 

[Stodgy]

Biggest bike I've ever seen! 57cm is 22.5 inches but looks bigger.
