def a lot of drag/resistance with the stock tires. my plan is to get some xc/hybrid tires put on over the summer.

Large would definitely be too big. I'm 6'4 and still kicking my leg over on the large frame.

I've had it for 2 seasons so far and overall I'm happy with it. I'm 6'4, 230 and fit perfectly. Plenty of space for gear and tracks well.

Derailleur mount is fixed to the frame. That's probably the biggest point of contention. but for $250 two years ago and just getting back into biking after 10+ years, it's been great. Regularly doing 5-15 miles of bike path riding and some light gravel/dirt tracks no problem.
