I currently ride a 20.4 TT and I'm 5'8 and hit my knees on my stem and bars constantly. I was wondering what you guys think? I'm getting a new frame and two friends of mine recommend a 21. What do you think?

Depends on what you ride, if youre still growing, etc. And then its still personal preference

Like everyone else said it's really personal preference. Try some of your friends frames, and see how you like the size of them.
Im same height as you and I ride 20.3TT
my knees dont even hit my bars.
You say BMX is your life but you barely ride.
BUT hey, That's none of my business.

Well you probably have a different riding style than me
you are crazy
i'd get something between 20.6 and 20.85, the two frames i've ridden were 20.8 and 20.85 and they seem to be the perfect size for me
