Sizing & Geometry
If you're on the cusp between the recommended height range of two sizes, the absolute best thing is to try to ride them both. At a minimum, check the stack/reach measurements on your current bike and compare it to the new model you are looking at to get an idea of a fit you are already comfortable with. If riding the bike is not an option, consider the following.
| s | m | l | xl | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| A. Reach | 415 | 440 | 460 | 490 |
| B. Stack | 596 | 605 | 614 | 633 |
| Head tube angle | 67° | 67° | 67° | 67° |
| L. Seat Tube Length | 405 | 430 | 470 | 530 |
| F. Front Center | 693 | 719 | 743 | 781 |
| H. BB Height | 313 | 313 | 313 | 313 |
| I. BB Drop | 60 | 60 | 60 | 60 |
| E. Wheelbase | 1119 | 1145 | 1169 | 1207 |
