Hi
I like the length of the xl and the height/standover of the large
Has anyone tried a 110 stem and a layback post?
Thanks

I sat on an xl yesterday and found the lack of standover (I'm 6'4") a bit worrying, but fitted nicely otherwise. Personally I think I'd go for the large. The problem I find with a layback post though, being tall, is that they put you too far back on the climbs.

110 stems and layback posts work fine, and are wholly appropriate for the taller rider, it's just fashion!
