I've had an ibis before, and experiences there crap customer service, following a frame un bond.
This ibis is a large.
The jet 9 is beautiful but it's a medium and I'm 6ft I'm too confused!!!!

Pics to follow!

Sounds like both bikes arent right for you. Another bike will be along soon, youve worked hard for your cash, dont spooge it on something because its just a good deal.

I just felt it was spot on. 34" inside leg, not unusually long arms. My medium/18" Sanderson is longer for reference.

I'm only 5' 8" on a good day and I rode a medium Jet 9 RDO. It'll be way too small for you at 6'!

Crap Ibis Customer Service? I have never heard that before, most people really rate them.

experiences there crap customer service

Wow, where did you hear that? I had a cosmetic crack on a second hand frame, well out of it's 2 year warranty. Since there was no dealer I contacted Ibis directly. They got me to mail the frame to them in America, offering to send a new one back if it was cracked. The crack turned out to only be cosmetic, but he offered to send me back a super discounted crash replacement deal instead. I even got to change the colour, they even sent it back as a no cost warranty replacement on the shipping, so it came through customs for free ๐Ÿ™‚

Crazy good customer support from that company, far beyond any other I've experienced.

Edit: Oh and I should mention, the guy who replied to my emails was Hans, one of the people who runs the company. He replied to every mail very swiftly, even though he had no obligation to bother talking to me at all.
