Glen - I'm 5' 11' so I was told its about right for someone swapping from mid school 19" frame shortness.

Obviously everyone has their own opinions about what makes a good frame and not knowing anything about NS geometry I asked 'some people' and they thought this was pretty good all round for me  :daumenhoch:

Its not a WTP  8)

I don't think you'd notice the difference Ed, its gonna feel odd to start with anyway.

My Alone is 21", and my fatty Pork is 20.5, the geometry is different too, but now on the Pork  i've got a 55mm stem, a swept back seat post and slammed the back wheel up, you can't really feel much difference, apart from about 6 stone!!!

Come on then, must be good if you are shipping from the US

22" doesn't count, plus it makes you look even shorter
I was talking about getting you off that badlander you keep bodging together - you'll do yourself a mischief on that thing before too long
