We got a lot of tall Paceliners!

[cadence90]

I feel short here at 6'-1", 80cm saddle.

I did cleanly dunk on a legit 10' rim. Once. Double
It was a cool feeling though, while it lasted.

[Gblumenstock]

6'3"+ 81.25 cm saddle height.

I am feeling like I should be trying 177.5 or 180 cranks (using 175s). What is the threads experience going longer?

(If anyone has a set lying around I would be be interested)

I can only speak for myself, but going to 180's many moons ago from 175's was a changer for me. The best way for me to describe it is that on 175's I usually felt like I was fighting to stay on top of the gear, where on the 180's I found it to be noticeably easier. Like finding the sweet spot in the gear ratio. I've never tried longer cranks so no comment there.

6'3", saddle height 79.8 cm from BB center.

I consistently lament not being able to ride 56cm bikes. There are SO MANY of them!

I'm 6'2" (equal torso and legs) and have gone down to 56 to get more comfortable. I'm thankful I can ride stock frames and adjust the seatpost/stem length and get those 56 frames!

Ditto. 188cm - ride 56-60cm road/cx std geos. Never been uncomfortable on standard sizes, generally easy setup with stem/pin/crank deltas.

Since I got you guys all in one place... any pro-tips in bib-shorts for us tall & skinnys? I'm particularly having a hard time finding some with straps long enough...

I've not had issues with Rapha, Velocio, Boure, and Assos

I'm same height and about 190. Check out Aerotech, they make tall sizes in bibs. I have a pair in large tall and they are a tad loose fitting fwiw, but comfortable bibs nonetheless.

6'8" here. Aerotech's clothing fits. Bikes off the shelf from the shop do not!

I'm not tall enough I guess although I have ridden with JMoore a few times. I'm a little over 6'1" and currently 220#. My bikes typically have a 58-59cm top tube and my saddles are 84cm C-Top so I guess I'm more legs than torso. I bought a big bike from SoCal about 11 years ago, a Big Leg Emma with a 60cm top tube that I set up with a 100mm stem. I rode it 47 miles this morning. The 58 top tube bikes including the new custom from Garro, sport a 120mm stem.

I'm 6-03 and have an 82 cm saddle height. I switched from 175s to 180s for a about a year. I ended up going back to 175s.

6'1" here...wish I were >6'3" or taller. Saddle height of only 77 cm, so no long legs. But, as a Chinese American, I've been "told" not to be too greedy.

As a ball-player and weight-lifter, I am a bit heavy at 210 lbs.

[GOTHBROOKS]

im 6'4 with almost a 36" inseam.
61/63cm frames with 110 stems and thomson 410 posts work well for me. but my track bike has a 135 stem.

[Ronsonic]

Dang, thought I was tall for a cyclist at 6'2". I must be, always finding guys riding in my wake.

Extra long wingspan so all my bikes have a nice racy drop to the bars even if I am old and out of shape.

[xnetter]

6'4" over here. I had a "french fit" steel custom made last year that's 70cm c-t
