[#7256835]

I'm looking at getting myself a Stanton Sherpa but cant decide on the size as im between sizes, I'm 5"11 with a 32 inch inside leg and I previously rode a medium cotic bfe which fit perfectly
Any help would be greatly appreciated

I'm same height if not 6ft with same leg and ride 19"+ frames.

Not sure on the Sherpa but guessing it only comes in 16" and 18" in which case 18" would do for fun ride then choose appropriate stem length depending on personal preference and style of riding/reach to the stem.

I'm 5'9 with a 30" inside leg and have just picked up a 17" Sherpa, got a 55mm stem/ 760mm bar combo and it feels about right, not roomy though. Reach is noticeably shorter than the medium Solaris it replaced.

Sherpa will be 17" or 19".

I'm 5'9 with a 32" inside leg and also ride a 17" Sherpa. 35mm stem, 760mm bars. Have also ridden a medium 26 Soul, which felt fine.

I'd go for the larger size Sherpa. Oh, and good choice, it is a lovely frame!
