Hi I'm looking to buy a wilier gtr ultegra and at 5"11 I think I'm in between a large and xl
I could do to sit on one really but none in stock near me. Any advice ?
Thanks

It's going to be personal choice, but I'd sooner go for the smaller frame and adjust it to fit than have a larger frame that needed to be adjusted down. Check the crank set to see if it is an FSA Gossamer one. I know of two bikes now where the left hand crank arm has come loose during a ride and fallen off. Problem is made worse by the fact the wavy washer invariably gets lost in the process meaning you have to mess about getting a replacement. Thankfully I ditched all the group set with mine and put something else on.I ride a bike. Doesn't make me green or a tree hugger. I drive a car too.0

Where are you?
I'd be going Medium or Large. Deffo not XL unless you're an odd 5 11Condor Super Acciaio, Record, Deda, Pacentis.
Curtis 853 Handbuilt MTB, XTR, DT Swiss and lots of Hope.
Genesis Datum Gravel Bike, Pacentis (again).
Genesis Equilibrium Disc, 105 & H-Plus-Son.

I'm 5ft 10 and it was between a medium and large for me. Both were fine but I went for the large with a shorter stem as it was slighly more comfortable for my shape.0

Not the same bike exactly but for info... I have a 2012 Wilier Gran Turismo am 6ft exactly, and ride a large.
It's been an awesome bike to own btw.

Definately not a XL, just bought the GTR Centaur in L and just shy of 6", comes with a long stem anyway with thin handlebars, wouldn't want to be stretching any further0

I'm just over 6'1" and I have an XL wilier La Triestina.
My friend is 5'10" and rides a med Wilier Gran Turismo, so perhaps the large might be a better fit?Wilier La Triestina
