Sjoerd Selders Posted March 23, 2016 Posted March 23, 2016 Can anyone assist? I am a beginner and would like to buy a secondhand MB with 29'' tubeless tyres. I am 1.78cm. Do I need a medium or large frame? Is 19.5'' a large or medium frame?? Where can I find secondhand bikes?
Beesrib Posted March 23, 2016 Posted March 23, 2016 Hi Sjoerd welcome. I am also 1.78cm and my silverback is a medium. Some manufacturers may differ a bit with regards to sizing charts. have a look at the classifieds for plenty of options on second-hand bikes
Heppy Posted March 23, 2016 Posted March 23, 2016 I am the same height as well and my stumpy is a medium, so was my previous scott and giant. You would probably be a medium as well unless you have a longer than normal inseam.
BenReaper Posted March 23, 2016 Posted March 23, 2016 High there Sjoerd,at that height I would rather put you on a large,19.5" is a large frame.What is youre budget and what kind of riding are you planning on doing?
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted March 23, 2016 Posted March 23, 2016 Large. Any day of the week. And if there's a 100mm stem on the thing, throw it in the bin and put something shorter on. It'll transform the bike completely.
