DehanL Posted February 13, 2018 Share Hi hubbers, I am starting this out of desperation. I am urgently trying to buy a used Swift Ultravox frame, but am unable to test the bike or get myself to Swift in CT. I am a 191cm tall guy, and the frame is a size L. Of course this is not a definite scientific way to estimate a frame size, but it is just that, an estimate. Does anyone here ride an Ultravox and am the same height as me? What size do you run? Thanks all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schnavel Posted February 13, 2018 Share Swift sizing is on the larger size when compared with other brands. I'm 1,81m and I ride the medium frameset with a 110mm stem. The seatpost is nowhere near maximum extension. The large should be the correct size for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomik Posted February 13, 2018 Share I'm 1.86m tall, ride a Large Ultravox TI. The frame is on the large side so I'm using an 80mm stem and have my seatpost quite far in the frame. I could even go to a shorter stem but it'll look a bit odd. Saddle is roughly in the middle of the rails. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomik Posted February 13, 2018 Share If you have a current bike to measure, send me the BB to saddle top measurement and the handlebar to saddle tip measurement and I will see if it works on my frame (seat extension and stem length/saddle position to get to your desired measurements). pm me so it lands in my inbox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DehanL Posted February 13, 2018 Share Thanks all for the help thusfar. According to the geometry chart, which can be found here: https://swiftcarbon.com/bikes/bike/ultravox-ti/ The top tube length of the L is 57cm and the XL is 58.7cm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
