Will this fit a 6'5" big guy? I'm 6'3" and the 61cm Volo fits me well. Super bike.

Awesome Bike - Amazing Service
I'm blown away not just by this bike but by the fantastic service from Giantnerd. I ordered my bike on Monday, it shipped that same day, I tracked its movement on FedEx website, and it arrived at my house three days later, almost ready to ride. The Genius Build I included was nearly perfect; my friend and I only had to make some minor adjustments before it was ready to ride. Put in 25 miles the first day after delivery at 2:30pm.
The bike rides like a dream. I've never owned a carbon road bike and I can't believe how responsive it is and how easy it is to ride. This bike screams down the road and climbs like nothing is there. It's way more bike than I'm used to and will take me a while to grow into it. Today did a 14 mile climb in Mt. Rainier National Park with a couple of friends, climbing over 5,000 elevation to the Sunrise visitor center. The ride down was wild, the bike just wanted to keep accelerating beyond my comfort level.
I'm very happy with the bikes components, the build, the look, the carbon frame - it definitely catches people's eyes. Once again, thanks to Giantnerd for an outstanding bike at an amazing price.
Duuuuuuuuuuude - get this bike....
