Looking at getting a Cube LTD Race hardtail. How do they size up, I believe I saw they are a little tight in length on top tube.Is this the case?.
I had a cube Ltd sl 29 in 19". I'm 5' 9" and definitely wouldn't have fitted on the 17". Had the stock stem fitted which was 60 or 70mm.
I'm 5'8 & raced a 17" last year, but recently sat on a 19" with a 90mm stem & it felt so much better.
Depends on what you want it for & your personal preference in position.
They size up small. I demoed a 29er a couple of years ago and went into the shop convinced that a 19" would do but the 21" felt much better. I'm 6ft exactly with long legs / short torso.
My girlfriend rides a men's Ltd 26" size 18". She's 5ft 7".
