Before this bike I had a Specialized FSR XC Pro - in a large. It totally depends on the manufacturer. Specialized used to make their FS bikes with a very short top tube, but now they make them substantially longer. So if I bought another Specialized I'd go with a medium.

Nice and thanks for the reply. This Iron Horse is a 19" which is I guess classified also as med. I too am 5'11 (with heels
) and really was difficult when trying different bikes. I still have my Diamondback Zetec. Its 10+ years old. But I think I am going to do a few upgrades and let it be my cruiser. Put some hybrid tires on for tooling around. The manitou shocks it came with in 1996-97 are pooed out and i cant rebuild them. So gonna try and pick up a cheap pair of rock shox or something inexpensive as these do nothing.
