Resurrecting this bad boy mainly because it just put me at ease.
I bought a 56 Specialized Allez and was thinking I should have went with a 54 because most people who are 5'9" with 30" inseam for pants are riding 54's. Turns out I should have checked my height first anyway because I have not checked it in 2 years and am now 5'10" with 32" pants inseam and 33.5 cycling inseam. Now my mind AND my body are comfortable on my bike.

If we are going shoeless, then I will say 6'3".
It this is the NBA, I will claim at least 6'5".
I ride a 60cm Trek 2100 and a 61cm Specialized Tricross Singlecross (and a 59cm Raleigh beater that's a little small but not really)
