I'm 5'11 and ride 54-55. If you are 6' tall I would guess the Cannondale would be too small. The 58s may fit but depends on your proportions. I think the Lemond is way over priced. The Trek is a decent deal depending on your local market. Where I live (los angeles) I would expect to pay $250ish for the Trek. Where you live I suspect that you could do even better , more like $200 for the Trek
Thanks for your reply. I was wondering why they put 21cm frame when most dimensions I've noticed (for my size) have been between 58 and 60cm. I too really like the Trek and it immediately caught my eye along with all of the Shimano specs. Any tips you can suggest for when I test ride it? What things should I be looking for and what questions should I be asking the seller before deciding to buy or not. Again, kind of a newbie here so some of my questions and posts on here may be dumb.
Thanks Again
