  1. I am 5'8" and 145 lbs. I recently bought a specialized rockhopper 15" as I was told that this is was the best fit. I am not real sure how i am supposed to feel but is the 15" to small for me? please help so i can return if possible. thanks

    feel is an important component to bike fit. I am 5'7" I feel comfortable in a 17" mine is also specialized. I have a friend about the same height who rides a small. It really does depend on feel and comfort.

  3. It also depends on the proportions of your body. Length of your legs, torso, and arms can all play important roles in choosing the proper fitting bike.

  4. Being 5' 6" I firmly believe that SIZE doesn't matter

    don't spoil the illusion

    :-P
