  • Piglet – What frame size?

    Hello,

    I am new to this forum, but I ‘ve been reading it for long time.
    It is my time now to get my Piglet frame, but I am a bit confused on what frame size to get.

    I live in Greece and I don;t have the opportunity to test ride a piglet.
    I am ordering it from CRC.

    I am 1,78cm (approx 5’10”) what frame size would you recommend?

    I’m 178cm with about 78cm inside leg.

    I’ve got an 18″ piglet frame (15mm layback post, 70mm stem, 710mm wide bars) and it fits me very comfortably.

    Some people may like it slightly smaller, but it suits me.

    I’m 6ft 4 and have just built up a 20″. Can tell you how it fits yet as I haven’t ridden it! But should be fine. Cannot wait to take her out tomorrow.

    I am 6ft and a 17inch was Ragleys advice.

    I’m 5’8 and tempted by a 14″ frame. Tiddly frames are squirtier

    In my experience of Brant-designed frames, one size bigger than he tells you to buy 😉 I’m 5’10 and normal proportions and he says to buy a small, but medium’s the correct size for me (it’s a matter of taste to some extent but if a 410mm post is too short, then the frame’s probably too small I reckon)

    that’s odd, IME he always thought I should be on bigger frames – he reckoned an 18″ inbred would be right, so I got it, but preffered the 16″ inbred I subsequently got – when I got a blue pig he suggested 18″ again and was sceptical when I said a 16″ would be better – and it was!
