Following the recent thread I've just popped into my local Evans to see if they had one in stock, and handily, they had a large, which I would have thought would be too big. I'm 5'9" with a longer torso and stubby 31" inside leg, usually ride mediums.
Only had a quick sit on it in the shop, but the large felt a good fit, but there was barely 2 inches of seatpost showing and it looked all wrong. Anyone got any experience of how the large and medium size up for real people?
I'd ride a L, I'm 6ft / 34" leg. It's not a really long bike for me but I think the L would be a bit big for most riders at 5'9".
I'm actually just over 5'9, but the cut off between large and medium is showing as 5'10. I am forever in between sizes! I suspect I'd be better with a shorter top tube and more seatpost, then I'd look less like a shortarse trying the latest niche.....
Anyone on the evening shift?
Medium for sure, not even road bikes have only 2" of post these days!
Thought so, just so surprised the large felt alright. Wasn't sure if it was a 29er quirk
