No one but you can say what "too big" means for you.

Me I don't think so. Unless all riding you do is loads of short, all out sprints and high-intensity climbs, bicycling is generally a lot more about endurance than outright sprints. And endurance athletes rarely get very big.

Do a net search for pro cyclists and marathon runners and see if you can find anyone looking bulky in there.

Answer

oh my gosh yes! after a month of cycling i saw that my calves got bigger but if you don't want to have big calves do something else besides cycling like swimming it's a full body workout and you don't get all sweaty.

Not necessarily, tendons attach the muscle to the bone, so when your muscles contract they move your bones causing body movement, for example, your Achilles tendon attaches the gastrocnemius (big outer calf muscle) and soleus (inner calf muscle) to your calcaneous (heel), and when they contract, you take a step. Now that is not all that makes you take a step, but you get the idea anyway.
