If so, how tall are you and do you think the bike would fit a 6ft 7ins, 34/35 inside leg could work?

Thanks!

I’m 6.3 on an XL. Have a short stem (came as standard), but definitely scope to put the seatpost a few inches higher and put a more traditional stem length on. Whether that would be enough I’m not sure but would be close

@giantonagiant - where are you based? There are quite a few on here who have one.

Can't see it being big enough as I'm 6'2 and went XL as found a previous generation large tiny.

As above where are you as I'm sure there's plenty of folk on here who'd let you take one for a spin (Just north of Belfast here)

6’3ish here (longer in body than leg) and would say it’s not a big bike.

I’ve a long seatpost and need it despite shortish legs.

I’m Suffolk based if that’s of any help.

I am 6’4 and have a XL, it’s not a big bike, I run it with a lot of seatpost and flipped up 90mm stem and are comfy enough but it could be bigger. You could always go for a custom Ti Camino 😃 we built one up the other day for a customer that was an XXL with a 60cm seat tube,? that was a much better fit for me.

I can’t imagine you’d get on with it, I’m 6’2” it’s a good fit for me, but I’m still using all the spacers that I can.

I should have posted a photo of mine above.

This is mine as is - bar the fact I now use a 90mm stem.

I don't have particularly long legs but there is a fair amount of this 400mm post out of the frame:

Many thanks to all for your replies here.

Had a really helpful chat with the guys at Sonder HQ who have also suggested the custom Ti option as described by Liam.

Cheers.
