not going to be that bad, then...
I think the main thing is does it 'look right' - if it does, give it a test ride and if you feel comfortable on it i'd say it's a goer.

Sounds familiar... heard that one a few times before..

Is that 66 cm frame size a typo? I'm 6'1" and I only ride a 58 cm frame.

If you are about 6'6", forget that I mentioned it !

I don't know anything about the actual bike, but if it is going to your best and last bike (we'll see... , I'd be tempted to spend a bit more and get a better groupset, say 105.

No not a typo.6' 4" tall.34" inside leg.New trousers last week 35"inside leg.Nice fit.But back to the bike.I ride a Dawes Galaxy 64cm frame.With the seat up and i had a handlebar stem from a mountain bike fitted.For a more upright ride.

Looks like a nice bike- i'd agree with ^^ about going for the 105 version though.


edit: although it does have an intergrated headset though- are you sure?
