Which manufacturers made the biggest frames?

[orange71]

I'm fed up with teeny tiny 19" (!) frames. Who made big frames so I can look out for them? I can kick off with 2 that I am aware of:

Proflex Way Big (21.5")
Dave Yates Diabolo (21.5")

and I've got both of these...

Nothing ever seems to fit me :cry:

Miyata did 22.5" c-t

 

[Yetiman]

Muddy Fox Courier came in 23" and I briefly had a 23" Falcon Everest in 1988. More like a gate than a bike.

 

[Stick Legs]

Dyna Tech bonded Ti's came in 21" flavour (real 21" seat tube as well, not imaginary lines to the seat post).

Orange made gates in 21" too.

Pace did 20"

Obviously all the custom guy's made big frames, as did Marin.

im pretty sure GT used to make some absolute whoppers. i remember reading about a custom one they did for a basketball guy once too.

DUDE! you're an ideal candidate for a custom built frame. check out the build quality on jez curtlo. exceptional & pretty good value for money... or give rody a shout

Is there a High and Mighty for the taller retro off roader? If so, please lt me know

It's true though isn't it - nothing seems to cater for the taller rider? It's even worse than getting clothes to fit!
