Looking at a Genesis IO as a commuter ride, its looks a good deal. Nice enough spec for the cash etc.

But how do they size up? What size frame do you use and how tall are you.

I currently ride a large SC Heckler with a 70mm stem and its bang on for me.

5'7" and I ride a 16" which Genesis say is xs ... saying that I do like small(er) frames.

You don't say how tall you are?

I have a 17.5 (med?) with a 90mm stem, I'm 5'11". Tbh I would say I'm on the limit height wise. Mate who is a similar height but with gibbon arms has a 19" with a 60mm stem

Nice bikes. Would be a shame just to commute on it. Go dinglespeed ๐Ÿ™‚

6ft 1

Sounds like the 19" may be the one. I'd probaly run a 70mm stem.

I'm 5'10" and ride a 17.5". Reckon any bigger and I'd go up a size.
