i am about 5 foot 4 and i dont know which frame size to buy.
i mainly ride at trail centres like cwm carn or afan (wales) iwant the frame to be big enough for going up but not so big i cant move around. i was thinking either 16 or 18 inches( the frame i want doesnt come in a 17inch size.)

what size was your old frame?
do you really mean frame or bike?
and i would say less than 16"
And it does depend on the maker you go for as to what size they call it.
go try some for size."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

Probably a 16"? Hard to say, really. Maybe could stretch to a 17".0

I would say try a 16" and see how that feels then take it from there. Every manufacturer measures their frames differently so a 16" frame from one make is not the same 16" as the next, the best bet is to try different bikes from the manufacturers ur thinkin of buying.
U may be one of the unlucky ones that falls between 2 sizes in which case its better to buy the slightly smaller frame for safety reasons, u can always adjust the fit with seatpost and stem adjustments/changes.0 -
