Overlord Posted October 11, 2009 Share Currently race with a XL HT. If I drop one size to a L and set-up is done correct would it be fine to race with or should I stick to a XL frame? MTB fundis please give your EXPERT opinions. Regards Onetime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gummibear Posted October 11, 2009 Share I am not a fundi but what stem length are you riding at the moment and how many spacers on your steerer?Also how long is your seatpost out the frame? If the XL is right then going down a size may make the stem to long and to many spacers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overlord Posted October 11, 2009 Share what is your height? 1,96m100mm stem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gummibear Posted October 11, 2009 Share That will take you to about a 120 stem and it will make your riding more twitchy.The big difference will be on the steerer tube lenght. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gummibear Posted October 11, 2009 Share You are pretty tall and can ride a smaller frame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
