Frame size confusion.

Thanks
I can't find any Giant stocked locally so can't actually try one out for size.
Bikefitting.com comes out as 19".

This is called cyberspace. We are cybercyclists.

Out in the meatworld there are people you can interact with and bicycles you can try.

Do that and you'll save time and possibly money and grief.

Bikes are sized differently.

My problem is I've a low budget. I've read that the Giant bikes are very good and you get a quality bike at the lower price range. I've found some online with a big discount so I'm very keen to grab the bargain.

I've been to a few local bike shops but none stock Giant so I'm not able to actually try one. I've tried the shops cheapest Ridgeback, but was still over my budget and the sizing could be different to Giant I'm told.

So I'm relying on someone here who's a similar size and has tried a Giant hybrid.

Like I said before, try the Hellfrauds Subway - it comes in an 18 as well!
