I'm thinking of getting a Boardman Road Comp on the Cycle2Work scheame and I cannot make out the sizing.

I'm 5'10" tall with a 29.5" inside leg and cannot decide on a small or a medium?

    Get yourself to Halfords and sit on them both
    My local store has all the sizes on display (different models)
    If I had to guess I would say Medium (or even Large :shock: )
    5' 10" is not short

    halfords have a scientific measuring system. a plastic strip you hold up to your leg

    I think the medium would be ok.
    I am 5'6" with a 31" inside leg and have the Small its a good fit for me.
    One of my collegues has the same measurements as you and has the Medium, my small is way too small for him....

    The length of the top tube is more important than the seat tube size for a good fit.
    lots of threads on this forum that go into more detail.

    Hope this helps
