Size is my biggest problem with it and I can't try it before I buy it. I'm average height (5'9") so I guess it'll probably be to small? I'm not that great judging bike's size by photos alone.

Secondly, if you want to ride it as a road bike, you have to be prepared to find bars, brake levers and possibly cables to replace the parts on it now. I don't know how mechanically inclined you are, these are easy jobs you can do with a set of hex keys.
I'm aware of that and that wouldn't be a problem.

What do you think is there any chance at all that it would fit me? Is it worth taking a risk?
