Hey BRAZUCA, thanks for the compliment on the bike. It is a real score, for sure. Anyway, the 21" fits me fine, though I don't mind a larger frame. I'm about 5'10" with a 30" inseam (pants inseam, that is). I have a Raleigh Sports with a 23" frame that I've ridden a fair bit and find to be very comfortable. So long as I can raise the seatpost and the handlebar to a comfortable level, I'm OK with a 21" frame.
