So the only issue unsolved is that the frame that fits you has v brake bosses on it and you don't want them? No you cannot buy the wrong size frame... Either live with them or saw them off and paint back over.0

Since when?
We love to get personal on here. We also love to offer advice and opinion. What we don't like though is when someone types out a question like some kind of dememnted ape, meaning you have to read it 5 times in order to understand it.
We also don't like txt spk, wasps, brussel sprouts or the French.0 -

keep the 17" or exchange for the 15"?
what size frame do you normally use?"Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

At 5'8" most people would want to be on a 15", not saying 17" is wrong for you.........Currently riding a Whyte T130C, X0 drivetrain, Magura Trail brakes converted to mixed wheel size (homebuilt wheels) with 140mm Fox 34 Rhythm and RP23 suspension. 12.2Kg.0
