After a bit of advice regarding the Ragley Bigwig sizing.

(I am set on a bigwig so please no suggestions of other frames...)

I am 5, 8" ish, its for trail-riding, no regular 40 milers or anything, will use with a 120 fork. Like to move the bike around and will want to take it over the odd jump section etc....

Is there anyone around my height that can comment on sizing? I am torn between the small and medium - The big gap between top-tube lenght doesnt help. Small = 574, Medium = 606.

Imput from other bigwig owners very welcome, or those with more 29er experience, this is my first and being a short arse i dont want to be riding a huge garden gate...

Thanks!

Thanks Z1ppy, nobody seems to use a 16" - looking at the photo of the 18" it looks pretty small.. i dont want to have to use a huge seatpost and long stem, i would rather use a 50-60mm stem and in-line post.

Any suggestions from any other 29er riders around 5 8" in terms of top tube and seat tube length?
