I need to know if I'm a large or XL. Think at 6ft 4 Ide be better with XL.

You'll need an XL in my opinion.I'm 6'1" & ride a large Anthem & also have a 26" wheeled Trance in large too.

Yep XL for sure. I had a large Anthem at 5'11, or 5'10 if I've been standing up all day 🙂

I'm 5'10.5 and I test rode mediums and bought a medium, sat on a large, much too big, I have long legs, short body so didn't want silly long top tube (medium Trance/Anthem same as my medium 456 and Fargo)

I have a trance X29er in medium, I'm 5'10" too. The large felt far too big despite my previous bikes being large 26" stumpjumpers. Advise you at least sit on a L and XL to see how they feel.

Trance is ace, fast fun and jumpy.

I have an Anthem X2, £1199 at Pedal On for 2013 at the moment which is a great deal allowing plenty for upgrades etc. Think only got Large left though.

I have an anthem in 26 inch flavour. Great bike on everything but steep technical stuff, in which case I wouldn't fancy it that much.

If the 29r version is an even faster version then it'll be a great bike.

Thought Ide let you all know that I've just tested Anthem X 1 29Er and I love it. Very nippy and well made. Trance needs to be off road all the time so Anthem it is 😆

Best prices please if anyone knows of a good deal. £1999 the best I can find.
