171ish is what I would recommend, probably not lower than that though

i think you could easily get away with a 166..

Also depends if you are still growing..if so, go longer.

ya dont get anything shorter then 170 and no longer then like 175. its not like your done growing so you will be able to ride these for a few years and not outgrow them.
