I am just about to order one of these frames. I currently have a 54 large pompino frame (it was free and built up from bits laying around, but it is far too big for me).

I would like to swap all the bits to a frame that fits and use it for commuting and perhaps the od road ride (up to about 35-50 miles).

I am 164 cm ish and a girl with about a 31 inch inner leg. I seem to fall inbetween sizes on the on one site, and I presume the guide is based on boys?

I ride a 16" orange 5, which is great, but I use a very short (50mm) stem so I can get comfy.

So, do I order the small or the medium?

I am thinking small, as my saddle on the 54 only has about 10cm of post showing.

Anyone got any advice?

Thanks Simone

My small has quite a lot of toe overlap 165 cranks not really a problem once used to it but if you were to fit mudguards ? not so sure. 5`6" 29"legs

I have mudguards fitted to the 54, so would like to move these onto my new frame. I am also not sure on what size cranks are fitted at the moment. So could I only fit short, 165 cranks?

Ta!

On my experience if you want to fit mud guards I would recommend the medium reach isnt that much different and youll have plenty of stand over clearance ,also amount of seatpost showing will be v different to a mountain bike
