Don't listen to her, she's a Lady Bandit Boy..

I'm 31" inside leg, rode a Medium for a bit have switched to a small, love it. I use it to jump clean over Bandits I find wobbling about the trails punching furiously at the Grindr app on their iPhones.

This from the bloke who had to go Jedi to learn to jump so that he didn't have to tuck his knackers up under his arse to stop catching them 😉

Oh, can you hurry up and let me know which colour you wanted, then you'll be able to ride that 29er!

I'm not sure what you mean, my knackers are safely nestled in all the folds of fat, you know that you naughty boy.

everyones different mate so maybe you'll like the fit of the medium and as you say your right in between sizes. Try and get a test ride near you?

Being short is ace... I reckon you'll need a small frame though.

I'd go for a small.I ride a medium and I'm 5'11. Its a perfect fit. Its worth remembering you can't put a reverb seat post all the way down as well.

Que? Do you mean that the reverb only goes down as far as the top of its collar?

Eh? Only thing that stops my reverb going all the way down is the super mudguard that protects the golden cheeks from becoming mud splattered, ugh horrid nasty brown stuff why would you want that all over your peachy cheeks?
Just had the phone call, my bikes ready and the suns aight, got my hammerschmidt restored on the Covert of total joy, it is now the perfect bike, uppy downy, hammerschmidt, couple of thou lumens, can (riding)life get any better?

5'10", 32" inseam, ride a medium.

My reverb doesn't need to go all the way to the collar.

She's a bit of a mucky duck though, he's gone to the Quantocks whatever they are, probably involve pasties, cider, sitting on walls and falling over backwards..
