Finally about to pull the trigger on a BFe, but still umming and arring over which size to go for.
Currently ride a Small Mr Hyde (15") which has a 585mm 'virtual top tube'.
Obviously then torn between an XS (14.5") and S (16") BFe. For chuckability and standover would ideally prefer the XS, but it only has a virtual top tube of 563mm as opposed to 577mm on the S.
So, question is - in the real world will I really notice a 20mm shorter reach if I plump for the XS (given that I used to happily run a stem on the Mr Hyde 20mm shorter than my current one)?
