I'm 6'5" and was riding my friend's P 1 last night at UCLA. Frame felt great standing up, making hard turns, hard pedaling. The top tube is 23.5 and the rider area measurement is 28 inches.

Kona makes all of their DJ bikes in hugh size. Like 24.5 TT length which is really hard to find.

Rich Houseman is 6'3/4" and rides a long Yeti DJ.

TT on the new yeti dj comes in at 23.5 inches on the long. that's what i have, and although i'm 6'0, i like longer bikes and this is certainly a longer one, so much fun.

I'm 6'6"and I'm Riding my 15" STP. It has a 23" top tube. It manuals super easy. I thought this bike was going to be way too small for me, but after one ride, I adjusted well to it!

I just noticed you were located in Tennessee ,Do you know David Thacker ?
We jsut set him up with one of our 26" Secret Agent frames and for someone your size one of these bikes would work out perfect , also you could probley take a spin on David's team bike at any of your local races .
We also jsut built a SA for a slaes rep at Burton snowboard who is 6 7" 220 !!
