If I took off all the rust it'd have more bald spots than I do.

Fortunately I got the bike just after a 7" growth spurt and not before. I go to these bike websites and go through their frame size choosing tool. If I measure my inseam the way they say to do it, it's 39.5" and the website gives me an error saying it's outside of normal ranges because I'm only 6'4".

The bike fits absolutely perfect as far as I can tell, but maybe that's because it's all I've ever had and that's what I'm used to.

by the way, I popped the head tube cups off tonight. Stuck a piece of pipe in there and popped them out in a minute.
