How tall are you & what size Cotic Rocket do you ride?

I'm bang between medium & large and can't work out which would be best. Can't get to any demos currently due to work commitments so looking for a bit of a clue.

I'm distinctly average in all the body dept's but currently ride a medium Nicolai Helius & a large Cannondale Jekyll, which feel fairly similar... Just don't know...

My (26er) Rocket was a medium and, like yourself, I'm bang between medium and large.

The current (UK) trend is longer frames (like that Mondraker that did ok at the Worlds the other week). Run with a short stem. Really depends what you fancy, I never thought my rocket was short (although I've come to wish my mk1 Soul and mk1 Solaris were both a little longer due to having a light front end when climbing steep stuff).

I will revert to my standard answer on these threads though, phone Cotic and talk through things with Paul or Cy. They, funnily enough, know what they are talking about. They are very approachable and helpful, they don't want to sell you the wrong size either.

Sorry: ETA - I'm 6'

I'm 510 - 511 on a good day.

Funnily enough I am waiting for Cy or Paul to email/phone back - thought I'd ask other customers their opinion, I thought it was best to get as many as possible.

Where are you Mildred? You're welcome to have a sit on mine if you're anywhere near the Peak / Dales / Hull...

As above, if you're anywhere near warwickshire, Shropshire, fod you're welcome a sit, though I suspect you may be a large.
