Sorry for the jacking, but how do you work out what size bike is right for you? For example I'm 1.72m / 5'8"

That would make you a medium to large, depending on what you are wanting to do with it. For cross country racing I would recommend a medium with a raised seatpost to be able to throw it around. For longer distance stuff the toptube would be a bit short and heavy on the back so you might be better off with a large.
Getting a fitting at a bike store would be best though. It all depends on the inseam measurement and what your preportions are.

Many thanks

 

[Bullet_GP]

Medium would be right. This moron on the hub made me strip my bike and bubble wrap the entire bike then SMS's me to tell me the courier is going to cost more than he thought.

i work in a cycling shop... i think with that frame u need a xl frame is u 6f4"... but is u near or could go to local cyclking shop that stocks that bike and ask them then u can go by wat they say and try diff sizes....

what parts have been replaced and hw many hours have been ridden on the other components along with wen was the last service

 

[Bullet_GP]

I am 6foot6 and I struggled with a XL as I like a bit of free movement which the XL didnt give me thus the move to L instead. Anyways guys the bike sold like a hotcake on Gumtree. Thanks guys
