    Considering buying a FS commencal carbon meta 5 frame.. Its a size small but the standover height at the tip of the seat is 29″. My inside leg is about 29″… Yes that would mean my jewels would be sat on the TT if i stood up with my feet on the floor. *Maths jeenius.

    My current frame is about 26″ standover in the same place and i feel totally comfortable with that. Im not sure whether a zero ball clearance would just annoy me and feel like the frame is too big. Do i just get it.. or look at something else or just be happy with my HT??
    Is there a charge blender like FS frame thats about the size?

    I would have thought a 5.5″ full suss will have a larger standover than a hardtail. Thats pretty much inevitable.

    It’ll probably only be a problem in a ‘quick dismount scenario’ though?

    I suppose it might save me having the vasectomy I was planning next year
