[#5114066]

Currently ride a 18 inch five. Im 6 foot and have a Giant Reign 1 Frame in 17 inch in the shed which im tempted to put my bits onto.

5'11 with a medium trance and a medium anthem (not one you asked about but may help with giants sizing).

6ft1 and a medium with a 90mm stem flipped down, the head tube on a large is massive. Mine is an 09 so dunno if the new ones are different. I also run 140forks which is the usual upgrade

6 foot on a large trance, with a 60mm or 70mm stem. Love it. Always had medium/18inch frames in the past, this is a much nicer fit.
That said, for the type of riding you'd presumably do on a Reign a medium might be just the ticket.

Thanks for the help guys. Thinking in going to give it a go.

Anyone want an 2011 Orange Five frame in Black? 😉

Would love to but have got the reign set up nicely now, so not at the moment thanks.

Good luck with the sale if you do sell though.

6ft on a Large Trance with 60mm stem and feels great. initially bought a medium, too small so had to sell it (would have worked with a 110mm stem but I wasn't willing to make that sacrifice!)

5'11" and a medium Reign.
Had an Orange 5 before the Reign .
When i rode the 5 i thought i was riding one of the most sorted bikes out there.I wasn't.The Reigns easily the better bike.

5'10, medium Trance. 140 Revs up front, 70mm stem 750 bars, layback post.
Generally works really nicely.
To be honest it's as short as I'd want it, just possibly I'd be better off on a large, can feel a little cramped on long fast downs, but longer ( as supplied) stem made things a bit too boat-like.
