Leader 725 2013 Fitting
Holy fawk I'm making a fitting thread, people are going to cut me....
I want a Leader 725, the 2013's are kinda cheap at the moment, but I keep seeing the long ass top tube length and don't know if I should get a smaller frame size. I don't wanna look like a tool on a kiddies bike, I'm ****** 6 feet tall........
I think the 55cm is a good match? no no the 58??

I am considering this frame as well for a build. I am short at 5' 2". I was told this frame would be best as I am short in the legs.

Find the top tube that is closest to your measurement from the fit calculator and buy that bike, no one can size you from a messageboard.

I'm 5'11" with average legs/long arms and ride a 55cm using a 100mm stem quite comfortably.
