I'm right in-between a L and XL according to Yeti. Trying to get a feel for how they size up in reality. I can't demo one and can't even sit on one as there are no demos available anywhere within reasonable distance.

What size do you ride and whats your height/inside leg? Also carbon or Alu mainframe as they are sized differently?

5'8" textbook medium.

Think we might get another ASR5 demo - was going to just run the SB66 but 5 sales are still very strong so prolly worth it.

How tall are you again?

Cheers. I assume its Mark. I'm 6'3. Are your demos not normally a medium anyway?

I'm 5'11 and ride a medium.
Went from a large Ibis Mojo to a Med ASR5c on the advise of the then distributors. They were right.

6ft2 on a large here (supplied by the bike chain....) Great fit for me.

Where are you at?

I'm in Edinburgh thus why I'd been talking to the bike chain. I'd appreciate a sit on large if anyone has one in Edinburgh.

Medium ASR-C (hope that's comparable) I'm 5'11.
For comparison purposes I also take 17.5" in Marin full-suss size and 19" in Saracen HT size.

As Mark knows I'm very interested in a sit on a large in Edinburgh too. I'm just under 6'5" with a long back more than leg so the top tube length of the Yeti is quite appealing. I don't like XL frames generally so am keen on the large, but my large Trance is just that bit too short for me. I'd also like to see one in the flesh before buying and check for myself the rear mud clearance etc (not with actual mud!)

Don't get a large in if it rules out most other riders though!

5'11 and 3/4 here - bordering between Medium and Large, but bought a medium becuase 80% of my riding is through tight and twisty forest trails.

6 foot - large, 70mm stem, 32 inch inside leg

medium felt a bit too small. Tend to prefer slightly long to slightly short though, but still have saddle fair way back
