As per the title really.....

Has anyone taken delivery if a 17.5 inch Genesis Fortitude yet and if so how tall are you?

I've taken a shine to an Adventure but think I'm going to be too small at 5ft 7.

I've got a 16 inch Kona Big Unit at the mo which fits great, but even the smallest Fortitude looks pretty big (to me anyway) lol

The plan was to strip and part out the Kona and replace it with the Genesis.

I was hoping that someone with a 5ft 7 friend might have picked one up by now, so I could work out sizing ๐Ÿ˜€

Not living on mainland UK means that I'd need to get on either a boat or plane to try one.
