Morning All,

Am thinking of getting a Boardman Team HT for my wife as a slight upgrade...looking for second hand so want be fairly sure on size.

Not sure about the frame size for her.

She is approx. 5-7 but don't know about inside leg (she is out of the country so cannot try any Halfords at the mo).

Do you think size S or M...

It will be used for easy MTB / XC and maybe some light touring. Absolutely no serious MTB / technical stuff.

Many thanks

    Hi,

    I'm the same height and had the same dilemma

    See this http://www.bikeradar.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=13001014

    Decided on medium this leaves me feeling fine on reach to handlebars and the seat height is level with the stem which suits me for my type of riding.

    On the small the seat post was at max and handle bars felt too close.

    If any thing like my wife in the morning maybe but after a bit of make up she looks well better than me....

    Your putting on your make up wrong if it makes you look worse....
