I see like a dozen threads about bike fit... Here is a simple enough thing to use for it.

Many people already know this. I even posted it before on a post. For those of you who are looking for a frame size you should try this out.
It is a fit calculator which finds exactly what frame is good for your body. You take measurements plug them in and it gives you the ranges for fits that are best for you.
If you are buying a bike you need a good fit. It does not matter if the bike is $500 or $5000 if you have the wrong fit it will not be a good ride.
Use it, it works.
Though I suggest if you are a first time bike buyer that you also compare at bike shops too. Some online bikes are great deals, and BikesDirect has some decent stuff if you know what you are looking for. But still, first time buyers may need the help of someone experienced.
