6'6" and 210 pounds here. More ape than man, and proportionally weird build that lets me fit on an off-the-peg 62cm bike without much tinkering and swapping of parts.
I've only got a 36" inseam, but I wear a 38 sleeve, so I'm all torso and arms. If any modifications need done on a stock bike, it's usually a longer or taller rise stem and wider bars. Heck, my CX racing bike is a 60cm frame and all I needed to do was throw a long stem and a long seatpost on there along with some 48cm Salsa Woodchipper bars and it fits great.
Clothing, OTOH, not so easy. I've got sprinter's legs. Finding trousers in a 34 waist, 36 length, which will fit around 26" quads becomes a challenge. Here's what I've managed so far:
PANTS
Levi's 550 Original Straight Fit - not bad, but they hang in the back. Not really a good look. Trust me; better yet, I trust my wife. When the missus says yer arse looks horrible in those pants, it's probably true.
Lucky Brand 221 Original Straight Fit - GOOD: True to size in the waist. BAD: Only available in 3 inseam options and they all run long. They look alright cuffed up, so it works out.
Citizens of Humanity, Evans Relaxed Straight Fit - True to size in waist and length. Relaxed fit is excellent for guys with big quads and cyclists (since we don't suffer from flat "dude butt" syndrome.)
7 for All Mankind, Austyn Relaxed Straight Fit - Again, similar to the CoH in fit and feel.
Joe's Jeans has a few varieties which are a straight fit, but on a sprinter's physique they're about as close as you'll get to hipster skinny jeans. They're mid rise or low rise, so please be kind and don't ride your bike in a pair of these; serious plumber's crack issues.
Rag & Bone fit similar to the Joe's, except they're a regular rise instead of a mid/low. Good colour selection if you're into the vibrant hipster trouser look. Nice taper on them versus the Joe's which are more of a straight cut, so they're a little less likely to snag a chainring if you forget to roll 'em up before heading out for PBR's at the dive bar.
SHIRTS
Jared Lang long sleeve shirts are long enough in the torso and sleeve, even for an ape like me. If you watch for them on Hautelook.com, you can snag them for a good price. If you buy them at their Nordstrom or Neiman Marcus price, you could be getting a really nice new frame and fork for the price of a couple shirts, so save your money and catch 'em on sale online.
American Apparel t-shirts are good in the length department for the torso. They are a tad short in the sleeves, and not the widest sleeves, either. I mean, I'm not really sporting some monster pair of pythons or anything, and the sleeves are a fairly slim looking on me. Good for showing off the guns, if you're so inclined.
Hurley and RVCA t-shirts - good on overall fit. Sleeves will not make the average guy look like Lou Ferrigno.
BIB SHORTS
Assos FI.Mille - Yes, they're expensive; and worth every penny. If you can afford a pair, they're the most comfortable bib for ultradistance riding that I've ever worn.
Hincapie Velocity - Not as expensive as the Assos, still super comfy. Less support in the bib than the FI.Mille, so if you're sporting a bit of a belly, these don't do as much to hold everything together. However, they're better vented and lighter than the FI.Mille, making them an excellent mid-distance and race bib. (sponsor bias note: My team wore Hincapie Velocity custom clothing for 2 seasons.)
Performance Ultra II - Lighter weight overall, thin padding, won't last more than 1 rough season; but you can get a pair on sale for $70 so whaddaya want?
JERSEYS
Hincapie Velocity - see sponsor bias note above. Seriously though, they're well made, well vented, and fit really nice.
Woolistic - If you're a junkie for the old-school, wool is where it's at. Woolistic makes jerseys that will fit us big folks, but order the triple X if you're over 6'4". They don't cut the body any wider than a standard XL, but they tack length onto the torso and arms. I have multiple triple X Woolistic jerseys and they fit great. Get the standard weight, not the lightweight. I bought a lightweight one and immediately had issues with the lettering tearing out at the edges of the stitching. The lightweight wool isn't strong enough to hold that bigass overlocked embroidery stitch without tearing. I've darned it and the repair is holding fine. My regular weight jerseys are going on 4 seasons old and still look new, save for some grease stains.
