Looking at maybe getting a P7 but unsure of whether to go 15 or 17"

I'm 5"8" -? What sizes you all riding compared to height ?

5'10" on a 19"
i have a relatively long body though, so i went 19 for the extra top tube length.
it fits me well and is comfy.

I'm 5'8" - my 2008 model is a 17 and just right - i think 15 would be too small

You need a 17 but don't take my word for it you should be able to demo one quite easily

i'm 5-10 andabit. i ride a 17 and really like that size frame. the effective TT feels very similar to my 18" 5. i ride an 18" inbred, but could probably run a 16" inbred if i wanted to ( same ETT ). i'd recommend you try a 15", but i guess it depends on how you like your bikes. they are relatively short for reach so you wouldn't be out of place on a 17" i guess.

I'm 5'7 and a bit.
Got my p7 as a gift. My missus told the shop my height an they got me 17".
As soon as I got my legs over it the standover was too close to the family jewels for my liking.
Changed the bike to a 15'" - perfecto.
Although some of my taller "friends" like to comment that it looks like a bmx ๐Ÿ™‚
