I’m contemplating pressing the button on the new 2016 Merlin PR7 as a means to giving road cycling another go. For the money (£315 with current 10% discount) it seems a pretty well specced entry-level bike.
However, I’m a little unsure as to what size would be best for me, 50cm or 53cm? This has been made even more confusing having been told both were the ‘correct size’ from 2 different Merlin employees, one via phone, and another via email.
For reference I’m 5’6″ with a 30/31″ inseam and currently ride a small Cotic Soul.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Cheers.
