    Does anyone have the above?

    Looking to buy (mail order) the Ltd pro with 27.5 wheels for my daughter and nowhere local to try.

    The geo does look similar to a Trek X Caliber in a 15.5” so could probably try one of those but I believe Cube sizing is slightly weird so would be good to know if anyone has one and how tall they are.

    Think my daughter is about 5’ 4” now.

    Thanks for any advice.

    My son has a 2015 Acid SL 27.5. His is a 16 inch frame and he went onto it when he was 12, and about 5ft 3. He is now 5ft 7 and still has another couple of inches until he’s outgrown it. For the first year I had a few spacers about the stem, which was also flipped to keep bars low. It’s a great bike.

    It’s a lot of bike for the money, deore groupset and an air Manitou fork, so pretty light.

    His wee brother has a 14 inch Genesis Core 20, which is similar height as has a 120mm rather than a 100mm fork on it. They cost about the same, but the Cube is a better bike, largely due to the fork.

    I am 5’6″ and ride a 16″ Reaction GTC 27.5 fits me perfectly.
