Anyone riding one here and if so what size?

I'm 6'1" and am torn between the 18"&20" the XL looks good with a long frame and in photos doesn't look that big but is it?

Ta.

Unless you have tiny hobbit legs you will want a large. I'm only five eleven and my Bird zero is a large (19 inch)with loads of seatpost showing.

Edit, I meant you will need XL.

My friend rides and XL guessing he is 6' 2" I'm only 5' 9" makes me feel very short. The bike looks awesome not gate like

Get an Xl....I'd like it longerer so I could run a 35mm stem.
If you're up Llandegla way ,you can have a sit on mine.....bike that is.

I'm 5'10 and on a large, great bike, climbs well and descends even better! Feels stable and planted on the back end

I'm 5'10 and I'd want a large, for the length. TBH the sizing is all a little weird, the large looks to me like a medium in pretty much every way- length, reach, 18 inch seattube.

If you've not ridden one, they are pretty bloody stiff. I liked everything else about it but I've had super-stiff hardtails before and it's not for me, it's the reason I didn't buy one. YMMV of course, lots of people love that.
