Who has one and what height are you?
I am 6' and considering one, probably should go for a medium but ride a medium Pitch and the effective TT of it falls between the small/medium BFe frames.
Feel free to post up a pic 🙂
You'll look like your riding a BMX 🙂
you're a medium or a large.
I'm 5'11" and ride a medium with a 65mm stem.
I have a small, I'm 5,5". Mine is a version 1, although I don't think that makes a difference.
I'd say a small might be a bit small....see what I did there!
But it is down to rider choice!
What type of riding will you do?
4x, dirt jumps, Bmx track, street - go for the small (it will be). Anything else is a medium IMO.

Hopefully I will look like I can ride it 🙂
The riding is bumpy jumpy XC and some downs/drops, a medium is the sensible choice.
I would go for the medium if I were you. That's what I went for at the same height and for the same sort of riding. 65mm stem and 750 bars its bloody great.
My mate who is about the same height of me says he doesn't like it because its too small, but he was trying to ride it uphill with the saddle down.
Thanks will probably go for the medium, emailed Cotic but they must be out riding 😉
Iwas torn between the Medium and the Large as I wanted it to be a more all round bike than my Enduro but want to be able to learn how to jump and still go on all day rides. They suggested the medium and I am very happy with it. Oh and just so you know Cotic only post frames on a Thursday so you have another week to wait for it.
I'm 5-10 and I've got a medium as per Cotic's suggestion.
Cotic Facebook page says they are having the day off after a busy week.
5'11" riding a small - medium feels way too big for anything other than XC - which, IMO is not what a BFe is for. Even Cotics ex team rider was 6'3" and rode a small.

Read his comments.
Small it is then 🙂
I had a small (16") and found it about right at 5'9", could have maybe done with a bit more room on the TT for xc rides but that's not really what the BFe is about!
I have a medium at 6' here. I ride DH and XC on it and find it about the right size. Doesn't feel too big for me when riding DH and I've done all day XC rides on it too, it's ace!
5'9 with a small. Feels a perfect fit. My mates around 6' and finds it a tad too small.
I absolutely love my BFe Its very confidence inspiring and you can chuck it about loads.
Go for the medium. My son has a small and while its great for a bit of a play I wouldnt want to ride it for longer periods of time (I am 5ft 11")
5'11" here and even a Small BFe would be too long for me.
size wise the XS would be spot on. not that I'd ever want any Cotic mind.
GW - what's wrong with Cotic?
Don't particularly like steel (overly heavy for my liking)
Reasonable enough reason 😉
