I am 6'2" with a 32" inseam as well. I bought my first road bike since my Huffy 10 speed last summer. I had had a Trek 800 Sport so I had expected to get another Trek for the road. However, when I tried the Trek 1200 it didn't fit well. Felt uncomfortable even just riding around the LBS lot. This bike has a traditional geometry. I then tried the Specialized Allez A1 Sport with a 'compact' geometry. Perfect. Both frames were 58 cm.

Some folks on the forum think compact geometry is a ploy to save money, but it helped me get a perfect fit.

Hope this helps...
