Tall Bicycles

Bicycle Renaissance
They have a wide range of bikes in lots of different sizes. Their custom frames range from $900 to $5,000. They don't have a website, but one of their fans made them this page.

TIPS FOR TALL BIKE SHOPPERS
You don't make pants for a tall person just by lengthening the cuffs, nor do you make tall bike frames by lengthening some of the tubes.

"Jobst Brandt is a tall cyclist, mechanical engineer and bicycle expert, has pointed out that lugged frames have a design weakness in the boundary between the lug and the tube forms a natural stress riser. This claim was accurate in my case, as I had a lugged frame fail with a headtube fracture right along the downtube lug (the known point of maximum stress). Carefully designed lugs can minimize this problem, but most people buy lugs for the retro-look, not for functionality. Jobst points out fork crown lugs have been particularly badly designed in the past (and failed predictably).

Touring frames are the only ones I know of these days that extend the wheelbase even a little beyond the minimum. Heavier riders also need wider tires, and too many frames today won't take anything over a 25 mm. I think the best stock geometry a tall person can get now is a touring frame, and fat-tubed aluminum is a better material for large frames ridden by large riders."
