What size are people riding compared to height?

I am looking to purchase one but don’t have the luxury of having a Giant retailer nearby to try out sizes. I am 5’11 and noted in a recent review that the medium can feel a little tight and they advise for riders of a similar height to go large and then try a smaller stem?

I appreciate its a difficult question with so many different body size factors come into play but what are people’s thoughts and experiences?

Was in a similar predicament myself, I am 5’11.5″ and i decided the large was the right size. see: http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/whyte-t-129-works-size

I’m 5’10 and have the medium, though admit to not having particularly long legs.

Fits perfect and is plenty chuckable.

I am 6ft, but have little stumps instead of legs, hence medium for me.
I like lots of standover because I use an mtb offroad 😕

A lot of folks seem desperate for LARGE- relax its not referring to your penis. 😆

They come up pretty big imo. I’m 5 10 and on a medium.

I’m 6′ 1″, but short in the Torso.
My Trance is a spot on as a Medium.
