What size frame have you got for your height?

Not an owner, but rode a 2017 T129 recently.

I'm 6'2" with long arms and legs and rode the XL. Felt right on me - wouldn't go any smaller.

Well I'm 5' 8.5" so height wise the medium should fit me, but the reach seems very long to me.

I'm 5'5 and ride a (2015) medium. Whyte say a medium is to suit 5'6 upwards, fits me fine, they have a long top tube but a short stem.
Cracking bike

5'10" and a 2016 medium. Perfect. Large would have worked too, but medium is a bit more chuckable. Best bike I have ever had, by the way.

5'11 riding a large (2013).

I do find it quite long sometimes and keep thinking about getting a medium.

Have ridden a friends medium Bandit which felt pretty much bang on.

I'm 5 10 and ride a 2014 large frame. I find it too short and now want a 2017 frame for the extra length.

5' 10 2015 medium.
Also does anyone else have trouble with the shifting on the rear mech, despite changing all the cables, twice in less than 18 months
Never had this on any other bike but this one after only 2 months shifting down the cassette is very lazy.
