    New shape Hecklers- what size do you guys ride?

    I used to own a medium (prev shape) Heckler and I'm 6ft1.5. For the life in me I can't remember how it sized up though TBH.

    Heres mine:

    It replaced my 2006 spesh enduro – bought the frame and swapped the bits.

    The enduro was such a good bike I wondered if I was doing the right thing.

    Verdict – 99.5% as good as the enduro on the way down
    300% as good as the enduro on the ups. I upgraded to the RP23BV with propedal which was a good decision in my view.

    Overall VERY happy with it. Comes in just over 30lbs compared to 38lbs for the enduro.

    I'm 6'4" and the XL is a little shorter than the L enduro but suits me ok (same TT lenth but arse to hand reach shortened by the converging HT/ST angles (they were both 68.5 on the enduro) the heckler has a much steeper SA as most bikes do these days)

    nice,nice. how are the xt wheels on the black un?

    I really like the the XT wheels, smooth freehub, they roll well on the XT Hubs & although not really light they do stand up to quite a bashing!

    was it easy to get used to the wide swingarm?? i demoed one but kept bashing my legs on it!

    I got to say I didn't really notice? Yeah my foot did hit it a couple of times when I first rode it, but I put that down to the geometry after riding the previous model (i.e. the newer one feels slightly tighter than the older one and I did need to jump up from Medium to large)

    More fun with the 55's over rough stuff, more xc with the Thors!
    About 28lb ish with the Thors, so depending on your view, fine for xc!
