I'm 5' 11" with arms and legs that are a bit short for my height, 56 cm to 58 cm fit me pretty well. I am back home now, but will likely be back in NY/NJ later this summer, a bike loan would be great! Getting on something with aluminum rims would be certainly be nice compared to the steel rims on the Continental!

What's great about this is that it's sort of like Christmas, I have no idea what you intend to loan to me, nor do I want to know, it'll be like some sort of blind dating tv show, I'll show up, you pull back the curtain, then I'll go and try to twist the cranks off it, certainly one of the finer modern day fairytales!
