I went to a dedicated bike shop and found I fit a 21" frame, and I’m looking at something like a Specialized Crosstrail. I have a black 2011 Specialized Crosstrail Sport Disc I am looking to sell for $450 firm if you are interested. It has under 20 miles on it.

Congrats I probably would have taken you up on this, I really could have gone either way with the two bikes. Thanks though :tup: Went out and put a few miles on the Misceo last night, God I forgot how nice it is to be out and riding… even went down a back trail by the rock quarry. Champ stuff, this bike. Really happy with it and it’s good to be back. My girl was riding with me for about an eighth mile before her front tire blew. :purextc: Her bike is some POS she had in high-school, I tried to clean, calibrate and grease it as much as possible but it’s in rough shape. So I guess we’re getting another new bike this week. ---

Pulled all the bikes out yesterday and get them all semi tuned up the best I could. I will be dropping them off to a fellow Nyspeeder to get them all looked at before I get into riding a lot this season. After doing this, I am super pumped to ride! As you all may know. I scooped up the 2006 Scott that was on here. ![http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c204/bobbyg1243/8659f5ba.jpg](http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c204/bobbyg1243/8659f5ba.jpg) I replaced the tires because they were dry rotted and got these guys put on: ![http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c204/bobbyg1243/e38099f8.jpg](http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c204/bobbyg1243/e38099f8.jpg) ![http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c204/bobbyg1243/58587f6a.jpg](http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c204/bobbyg1243/58587f6a.jpg) And my fleet all cleaned up (well kinda) ![http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c204/bobbyg1243/51787bf1.jpg](http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c204/bobbyg1243/51787bf1.jpg) I’m selling the bike in the back since my gf doesn’t really ride it and I will be getting her a nicer one of her choice.

Looks like a good pickup to me. Gotta link? I really need a bike. \ Looking at some reviews of the Windsor bikes on some biking forums and haven’t seen any negative comments so far. \ Pulled the trigger and bought it in blue. ---

I am 6’3" and went with 59 based on the advice from my riding friends who are similar builds. I also used [http://www.ebicycles.com/bicycle-tools/frame-sizer/road-bike](http://www.ebicycles.com/bicycle-tools/frame-sizer/road-bike) to get the general idea. ---
