How big is the frame?
Last thing you need is a ill fitting bike

Its a medium to large suited for 5'8 -6'3 so dont be buying a bike thats too big for you, it could cause you problems handling wise.
I'm sure you could find a small frame for the same money or cheaper

A medium ancestors is going to be to big dude, you'd need a small definitely.
Dont just buy a bike because it looks a good deal, it needs to fit you probably. Unfortunately at your age/growing time what is right now might not be right in a tears time .
