Thankful to find the site and looking forward to learning a ton...
I am just now getting back into biking after about 15 years off thanks to something of an impulse buy! Proud owner of a Giant Talon 1 29er, purchased from Kittery Trading Post. I'd like to say I have put a lot of mile on it since purchasing it over a year ago but work and personal distractions have meant I am just now getting the chance to actually ride it.
My question is about fitment, specifically the frame size. The folks at KTP were very helpful but I am concerned that I should have gone with a medium vice a large (5'11" with 33" inseam) but I am completely ignorant on the adjustments and proper fit. Bottom line is the bike is comfortable to ride but when standing, not much clearance between the top-tube and items of critical importance.
At any rate, thanks for running a great site and looking forward to putting some miles on with my daughter (just got her a Giant Escape hybrid for excellent report cards) and learning more...
