Hi Chaps,
Has anyone got an XLS? I'm thinking of buying the missus the flat-bar version as a commuter, and day long epic bike for the road.
I'm a bit confused with the sizing, an ETT of 515 recommended for anyone up to 5'7" sounds very short to me, even with a 100mm stem, that's far shorter than I'd ever think of recommending for a mountain bike.
anyone got an XLS, and can comment on sizing?
Cheers
Ricks
I had a 54cm road bike which I sold to fund the XLS but I went for the size down I think it was a 51cm and it fits me perfectly.
5'8" with a 31" inside leg. Hope hay helps.
Loverly bike it is
Edit: Ignore me, the weight is in the specs.
I'm a bit taller than you at 6' but I'm riding a 57cm which is the recommended size for me and it fits perfect.
As a flat bar you don't have the same reach as a drop so I would size up and go for the 54cm and adjust for reach using right stem and rise.
