So my hands have been tied a bit...

Due to a balls up (on my part!) my budget isn't going to be what I had hoped, so the cycle-to-work scheme seems to be my winner.
Am planning on the Bossnut from Go Outdoors, so my question is... Do I go for 17" or 19" frame? I'm around 5'11"
The 19" has next to no stand over clearance and felt a little long, but the 17" just felt small. Although stand over on it was a fair amount.
Also as they come in 17",19" and 21" that would make the 17" a small frame which sounds daft that I'd need a small for my height.

Any advice appreciated!

Medium.

Thanks super! That's kinda what I thought, so 19" would be my size. I could always drop a stem size if I still think it's too long. 50mm to 35mm(ish) I would think.

I'm a touch over 5'11 and went for the 19. Standover with your feet on the floor is a bit pointless... It's how much space you have when up on the pedals that matters.

The standard stem on the 19's 70mm, so a fair amount of scope for going shorter if you feel the need. It feels pretty much perfect to me while I'm out on the trails though.

Thanks oxo, hey why! Any new additions to her yet?

I was sure it was a 50mm stem. If it's 70 then there easily scope for a bit of tweeking!
