I'm considering buying an Escarpe 29 VRX but I'm a wee bit worried about sizing for me at 6'3". Reach figures on an XL seem shorter than other bikes and I won't be able to try one out. Are there any tallish folk out there who ride one who could give me an idea of fit?
I'm 5/11 on an XL Sommet VRX and fits me like a glove.
Very underrated bikes imho.
They're not the longest bikes. I'm 5'11 on a large escarpe 29er and it fits me well (and I can just fit a 150 Reverb). Are they running any more demo days? It's a great bike for the money if it fits.
5'11" on an XL Sommet! That does make me wonder if an XL Escarpe will be big enough!
6 2/3 on a XL escarpe (650b version).
Long but not as long as my bro's XL aeris. Not short by any means though.
Long seattube though (20.5 or 21 inch). May or may not bother you.
Great bikes I must add.
Thanks coomber - do you have enough room to fit a 150mm dropper post?
I didn't try fitting one but I would be surprised. Had a KS integra on mine and that was only 100mm so would be very touch and go. Part of the reason why I swapped to a bird aeris frame.
34" inside leg by the way.
Thanks for that. Any more input from tall riders gratefully received!
