I'm 6'1" with 34" legs...

Looking at a Codeine build... If you have one, what size are you, and what size is your frame?

Pics if poss

The 'reach' is a bit on the short side, 430mm for the large*. Compare that against the 480mm of a large Transition Smuggler.

I'd suggest a large.

(*suits me fine, at 6'2", please don't change this on my behalf)

Gibbon armed 5'11" with a 32" leg. I'm on a 20" (large) Codeine here. I could only drop the reverb another 5mm into the frame, so it's a close fit for standover, but length is just perfect for me. Remember that you could always go up to a 50mm stem too

6'3" here with a large Codeine and I'm happy with the size, but I've ridden smaller bikes all my life and I wouldn't really want it any bigger. 50mm stem and going up to 780 bars.

Reverb up a bit since the pic, but I'd like to go to a 150 post at some point.

Love the bike, it's not light or pretty, but for such a capable bike it's always a lot of fun.
