Looking at the possibility of getting a Capra (along with every other man and his dog).

However I'm on the boundary of the Large bike. As I'm aiming for it to be used for everything and anything, It needs to actually be long enough when I'm in the saddle.

Have any tall folk bought one? How have you gotten on with the sizing?

Thanks guys. Going to take the majority here and call it unrealistic to think about one being the right size!

Discriminated against wherever we go aren't we....

At least the newer, larger wheel sizes mean bikes look more in proportion in 'proper man sizes' 😉
