What is the real height and weight of Lance Armstrong when he was riding in the Tour
I keep seeing different #s for height and weight. Weight I can understand since weight always changes but I see a wide difference in height. From 6' to 5'8. And for the weight, 175 down to 150lbs. What is his true height and weight?

Depends on the year....before cancer? After cancer?
Not sure about his height, but his weight certainly changed. Why such the interest...if i may ask

I've read that Lance is 5'11" and was down to 163 lbs by the end of the TDF each year. We have similar builds (if not cycling power). Lance shot up to 180lbs + very quickly after he stopped cycling. Me too. If I'm not riding I can't stay under 180. No way.

It doesnt really matter that much how much he weighs and compare it to ourselves.. He had an incredibly strong cardiovascular system and lactic tolerance. He could have weighed 200lbs and still be able to function well enough to be competitive. The bigger the engine, the better the output.
He ran the NYC marathon when he was 180lbs and without ideal training and he finished pretty well for that weight. Imagine all the pounding on his legs
