I am considering buying an almost new Orange 5, 27.5 inch wheels, size large. I was 6 foot at some stage but less now. My previous 2008 (stolen last month) was a medium, which had an 18 inch seat tube. The current large has an 18″ seat tube.

Any similar size folk with recent experience?

Thanks

i had a go on a mates demo 5 today in a large, my old 2012 5 was a medium, the large felt bang on for me at 5’9 / 10

2014 650b 5 in a medium. Im 5′ 9″, inside leg 31″..
Large would be way to big for me…

5′ 11″ tall and 32 inside leg. Large frame 2016 model Five fits just fine.

6ft, I tried a medium 5 last week. Fun to ride, but too short & seat wouldn’t go high enough. A large would be spot on for me.

Many thanks for the helpful responses.

I’m 6ft2, 33 inside leg, and had a 2015 MK1 in XL. Reach was fine, standover was lousy. An L would have been great standover, but the reach too short. Since they’ve lengthened them a bit for 2016 I reckon I’d be good on a Large but I still think they’re too short.

I’m 6ft with a 33″ let, currently riding a Large Mk 2 Five, feels good to me.
