I’m seriously tempted in the above frame as my first foray into 29er land.
How tall are you and how do you find the length? Fits well, niggles you care to share?

Could i have some pics for inspiration?

Lovely looking frames, but they do seem quite pricey.

£400 on Merlin at the moment. Still a great deal of money though compared to a Scandal but think they look ace.

400, WOW, that's very good!

Edited to add that I though the original price was considerably higher

What do you mean by large? The frame or the rider?

FWIW, I ride a medium and I'm 5'11" and it fits just nicely.

I'd say pick the size that matches your 26" wheeled bike size

Whoops, yes your right, not worded very well. I’m interested in large frame owners. Doesn't appear to be any test bikes about, which is annoying.

I'm 6'3 and ride a large. Fits well, not loads of standover but easily enough and I've a shortish legs, longish body build.

Whereabouts are you?

Yorkshire/Huddersfield. What fork length do you run Ivan?

I've got X-Fusion Slides at 120mm which is a nice trail set-up but you could easily run it at 80/100 for a racier feel.

I'm away for a couple of weekends now otherwise I'd offer you a testride on mine.
