Nothing will answer your question better than climbing aboard one.

I bought a large pitch and it is a large bike, but it fits for what I bought it for, but I could have got away with a medium if I was young enough for tricks and jumps. I have an 18in Ragley and it rides perfect. I have a 19in Gary Fisher which feels very similar to the 18in Ragley. I love all three. How tall are you? Can't just go by standover. Have you got short legs or something?

I have always ridden a bike in "medium" flavour.

I swapped from an 18" 456 to a 17.5" genesis Altitude and the Altitude comes up smaller.

In fact, it made me think I have been riding oversized frames before now. I am 5'9" and it fits me perfectly with a 90mm stem, but is very ridable and comfy with a 70mm stem

edit. Dont know how the Lattitude compares but the Altitude is Awesome.
