Not very interesting i'm afraid, I have a 19" santa cruz blur lt2 on order but the importers are cocking me around and after a 6 week delivery date turning into 12 weeks and still no date promised i'm checking out alternatives.
I like the 575 but no one local has em in stock so I kinda need to know whether at 6'2 I can get on with an 18.5", their website reckons I need a 20.5" but i've got a real aversion to bikes over 20" and normally ride 19"s. Also looking at Tracer VP as its basically an LT with a different badge.
Any folk out there with any advice?! ๐Ÿ™‚

6.1" and 20.5 here. feels bang on to be honest but would rather go an inch shorter than longer. It does feel quite a long bike in the twisties.

Theres a shop down in Clevedon called Bike Style. Theyve got a few 575's in and they also have a demo setup for you to try out. Also ask the guys on the yetifan.com forum and they can give you advice. The best part of owning a Yeti appart from the amazing bikes, is the suport from the "Tribe" Everyone who owns a Yeti is part of the family and its a tight knit family too!!! Cheers
