a very tall bike
My buddy Colleen promotes cycling to kids and their parents and took delivery of a new bike from Trek. She is over 6'6 and it was made to fit her frame. The paint on it is amazing. Here is her blog post on it with lots of photos. It is a takeoff on their new eco line.

FWIW: her friend needs to pump up her tires:

Were I that tall, I'd be happy enough to have something that fits, even if it meant Tourney.

The white rubber tires with black sidewalls is an interesting touch.

(FWIW: I'm 6-foot-4, my wife's 5-foot-10. Our legs are the same length, though.)
