I'm 5' 8" & ride a 2007 medium Yeti 575 (as you know, these are more like a large in other bikes) with a 70mm stem.

My question is would a large Singular Swift be WAY to big for me or could I get away with it if I use a inline seatpost & the same 70mm stem....

Thoughts please!

6ft w2 with online post and 80mm stem here, fits lovely, you'd need medium I reckon unless you like lying on the top tube

5' 9" here & my medium Pegasus is ideal. Definitely reckon you'd need a med unless you've got some really freaky proportions 🙂

Seen a bargain frame in the wrong size? Walk away.

5'8" never an L.

I'm 6'5" and an XL is pretty spot on. I very much doubt that a L would be right for someone 5'8" unless you really have VERY odd proportions.

No chance, I had a medium Swift and at 5'8" it was just right. I think a large is pushing it a little to much
