I'm positive it may fit you well... but what's your inseam, what bike do you ride now and how do you feel on it?jonelli said:Hi i am 6 foot tall, would a med moto lite be ok or would you go large many thanks.
The large MotoLite is almost identical top tube to the large Flux. The medium MotoLite is .95" shorter than the large Flux. Typically, you want a slightly longer top tube/short stem on a longer travel bike anyway. So unless you thought the top tube on the Flux was waaaay too long, the Large MotoLite is the one.jonelli said:Inseam 33'' Ride a turner Flux large at moment. Top Tube 3/4'' shorter on motolite. Will this mater.
many thanks je
My situation is exactly the same as MintSauce. Same dimensions. I also ride a large ML based on recs from both dealer and Titus. Same cockpit setup with straight post and 100mm stem. My ML feels pretty darn nice but I never have had the chance to ride a medium. Seems that if I had a med everything would be maxed. Sooper long stem and layed back post stickin' way up there. Doesn't sound ideal, but like I said, I never gave it a try....MintSauce said:I'm 5'11" with 33" inseam. Ride a large with 100mm stem and straight Thomson seatpost.
Fits like a glove. I could make a medium work with layback seatpost and maybe longer stem, but then the seatpost would extend over Titus recommended maximum(8-9inches) above the seattube so that's why i had to go large.
Love the bike!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well said. I ride both sizes (5'10", 33" inseam) and can set up either to suit me. I tend toward large frames to give me more cockpit room. I may be giving up some handling.salimoneus said:you are definitely in that grey area.
with the medium you will have less range of setup options as you will probably be running a longer stem in order keep your weight centered. the large, you will be able to shift things a little more either way. also depends on your preferred trails and riding position.
some people in-between go with the smaller of the two frames for more control and a shorter wheelbase. others like the added stability of a longer wheelbase and more forgiving controls.
best advice is to ride both and if possible play with stem/seat configurations until the choice becomes clear.
