In need of some advice guys.
I'm 5'10" what frame size should I get, I know usually it's what feels right but are there anyone on here same size? If so, what frame size have you got? The rock rider I have which they say is a freeride bike is a medium but it feels small! I struggle to get my legs stretched out.
Any advice much appreciated as always

Depends what medium and what large too. Frinstance my Rose medium is 18" frame, Bird medium is 17". So at 5'9" the Bird large at 19" feels spot on. Going by that you'd be looking at a 20 or 21 inch frame. So difficult to say though without sitting on a bike.

I'm 5'11" and on a Medium Canyon Spectral and a Large Saracen Myst, my old Commencal was also a Large but my Marins were all Mediums, I'm at a size where I can generally go ether or. I'd say at 5'10" you'd be a medium but thats no guarentee
New bikes are coming with longer reach and shorter stand over height, the Medium Rock Rider may seem small but another manufacturers may seem large, you'd really need to know the geometry figures before you can make any form of a decision even doing it like that, you wont know for sure until you sling a leg over the bike.

I'm around your height and had to opt for a large NP Mega frame

Im 5"7 and I have a medium, I am right on the cut line according to size charts. I would rather have a bit of a bigger bike than one that was too small

I went for a Large Commencal Meta AM in the end, sat on one and large was perfect.
Thanks for the help chaps.
