I'm not an abnormally tall person (6'1" or 185cm) but I'm looking for a road bike with a 58-60 cm frame that isn't going to cost me an entire month's salary. Can anybody suggest a shop in Seoul that might have what I'm looking for? Are there any taller bikers out there who have had a similar problem but found a solution? much appreciated.

road bikes here are expensive. even something simple like a specialized allez would be nearly doubled in cost.

i'd suggest looking at a merida and interestingly enough make most of specialized's bikes. the prices will be reduced as they're not well known and really only sold in europe and asia.

just about any bike shop should be able to order one for you. double check that stand over height as the shop WILL NOT let you test ride it before purchasing.
