I only raise this as I am 5ft1 and most definately not close to 2km tall! I don't think any one would even make a bike that is big enough for someone 2.1km tall. By the way 2.1km is 6889.7638 feet... Using the useful answer tool I got 100%, I've never got 100% before thanks fatty! p.s. I support Dan K, please ask bike radar for a bit of margin on the left! “drop it on the derailleur from a height of 4 feet (2.1 Kilometers).”
