Anyone in the Peaks got a lurcher in a 19.5 or 21 inch size that I could chuck my leg over just to test for size and stuff.

Sorry, not in the peaks, but I've just got a 19.5 carbon lurcher 29er. I'm about 6'2'', with longish legs/shortish torso. Very similar size to my 19' Kona hardtail, and just shorter than my Large Giant Anthem. May or may not be of any help.

Where abouts are you based. I'm similar to you So I may try and go with a 19.5. Have you had any problems with them?

I'm in Worksop and have a 19.5", but it's probably easier to go to the Rotherham shop than try mine...
I'm 6'2" too btw

Seat post is just about right for a dropper, don't think I could fit a 125mm drop in an xl frame

I'm down South. No problems with On-one. Delivery was a bit slow, and I had no pre-warning from the courier (Yodel *shudder*), but I wasn't in any rush, so not a problem for me Quality of frame does look good for the money.

Just for reference , I've got a 19.5" , spot on for me at 6' with 34" legs.

Absolutely brilliant !

No problems with the bottom bracket being loose like my whippet? I'm also based in Peterborough if that's close to anyone

Shorty, no bb problems yet, but how did you solve yours?

Mine is fitted with a hope bb having read comments about bb issues...
My bb cups certainly slid in like the bb tube was oversized (ie. By hand!) but the hope bb is held together by the centre part of the bb.
Time will tell.

One sides fine the other is slightly too big I just wrapped a couple wraps of electrical tape and it holds up fine.
