large frame or extra large

[hartlettlg@gmail.com]

Hi there can someone help me I ride a large road bike so what size frame mountain bike do I need I'm 1.89 meters tall

[openmind]

Get a bike fit.

 

If that's not an option, for your height, go for a L if you are more an cross-country rider or an XL if you favour marathons. (I'm 1.88m, favour XC and ride a L). What complicates things is that one manufacturer's L is another's XL.

 

So really, get a bike fit

I'm 1.89m Tall and ride a 19" (Large) Momsen Hardtail and use it for everything, commuting to work, On the IDT, Trails, Stage Racing.

 

Just my 2c, use it , dont use it, up to you. But if you are buying a new bike from a shop let them fit you first. they wont charge you if you buying the bike from them.

not all fits are correct either. My first Raleigh road bike from a shop in bedforview was a 57cm. Now I actually ride a 61cm (I'm 19cm5 tall)rubbish advice I originally got, just to make a sale it seems
