I know a guy with a Van Dessel that is pretty big. kind of a cyclocross
bike. but that said, its still probably only a 22 or 23 inch frame.
i'd imagine something like that would look like a 16 inch frame under me
(at 6'2"). and my old Marin from around 1992 was quite big, probably
22" or so, and it wasnt the smallest at the time, so perhaps an
'old-school' frame might do him? something like a 22" or 24" with a
long seat post and a long stem would do it wouldnt it?

Subject: Extra large bike needed
Does anyone know a bicycle company that stocks bikes for very tall
people? I met a guy who is 6' 8" with long legs and needs at would like
a 30" (76cm) frame. A custom frame would be too expensive for him, so I
am looking for about a $500 bike. He is car-free so he does alot of
riding. His current bike is much too small so I don't know how he does
it.
