I am 6' tall. Some years ago I found a 17'' unused CF Coyote Mono six with a Sachs Quartz group at a fleamarket. OK bike said the salesman -45$. Yes it is too small but with a long seatpost, but it has served me very well for many years now. (I am putting it out to pasture now, the idea of old, early CF technology with many miles on rocky roads and paths is a bit too scary).
