Looking at getting a cube stereo 150 c68 29er but I’m stuck size wise , I’m 5 11” with a 31.5” inside leg would I be an 18” or a 20” I’m on the top limit on 1 and bottom on the other , cheers boys
always go bigger
The Stereo isn't the longest bike in the world, so as above, go the biggest you can, provided you can get a 150mm droper post to fit.
The 20" model has a 470mm seat tube.
The470mm seat tube do you add the drop of 34mm to it as the 470mm isn’t to the centre of the bb , so is it actually about 500mm ish , and the 20” comes with a 150mm dropper
Which year and model are you looking at?
I have a 2019 C62 race which has a 425mm seat tube, 457 mm length dropper and I have an inseam 2’’ shorter than yours. The seat post is pretty much as far down as it will go. I tend to run my saddle relatively high in comparison to a lot of my mates so I imagine it will be close.
If it’s the 2019 then I think the seat post is pretty much the same length.
I do think that at 5 11 depending on what you are used to a medium might feel a touch small.

The 470mm length is from the centre of the BB to the top of the seat tube.
The 34mm BB drop is from the height of the hubs to the BB, vetically - nothing to do with the seat tube length.
What's your current bikes seat tube length?
The fox transfer 150mm has a minium height between collar and saddle rails of 209mm, so that's 680mm between BB and saddle rails.
Ta11 thanks for your help I think I need the 20" .my current bike is 710mm from bb to rails with a 150 dropper so I'll have 30mm of post sticking out and my top tube from post centre to stem centre is 610mm where the cube is 616mm so not a great deal of diff . Do you agree with me
