I am 5'10" and I really like the Hardrock in a 15" size. I had one for a while and sold it. I may buy one of the new '09 models. If I do I'll get another 15.

I'm curious to know what your inseam is. I get you're looking for a smallish bike but I'm curious to know if you're all legs or all torso (or in between).
