Being tall, 6'6" and under 200 lbs, Oversize tubing is normal for me. The larger diameter tubing in my bikes makes for a nice ride compared to my now long gone old Peugeot that was too small for me.When frames get big there is more flex and that can make for front end shimmy and other riding weirdness. Front end shimmy is another topic all on it's own. My past A Homer Hilsen was a nice mix of flexibility and stiffness, hope you are enjoying it Curtiss!
