on-one carbon 456

hi guys

i currently ride a 19" kona scab and looking at upgrading to a carbon 456

ive seen one in a 20" frame, i'm just under 6ft with an inside leg of just less than 33".

on one state an inside leg of 33-37

do you think this frame size will be ok?

thank you

Probably, but try to try before you buy, as actual size vary between manus

I'm just over 6ft and bought an 18" carbon 456 and it seems about spot on, but i've always preferred my frames slightly smaller. Really love mine.

I'm 6 1" , 33" leg and had an 18" steel 456 which was about spot on.
20" would prob be OK for more XC type none tech riding, ie more stretched out. But if techy stuff is your type, i'd go for 18".
But, you'd need to try for yourself really...

I think 18 inch is likely to be better unless you like a long top tube.

Compare the rest of the geo. But what is wrong with what you have?

I am 5ft 9 and have a Small carbon 456 and that is perfect for me, inside leg 31"

Nothing is wrong at all with the bike i have, its just pretty heavy and old now, i want something a little lighter and newer than the kona and i quite like the look of the 456, and its up for a good price

a 20" will be to big, get an 18".
