Hi all
Looking at the Scott foil, im just over 5'7 without shoes and currently ride a Small giant TCR that feels too small for me. The measurements on the 52 foil are very close to what im on now so wondering if anyone around my height is on a 54 foil and if the fit is ok?
Thanks

    The Foil measures quite large compared to some frames. Without knowing all your measurements, I would say 52cm with a decent length stem.

    I'd be looking at a 54 and I'm 5 11. (Previously had a 56cm Foil and it always felt slightly too large for me)

    I'm 171cm tall (long torso) and ride a small Foil. It's been professionally fitted and for my dimensions I needed a 100mm stem.

    I'm 5'9" and I test rode the Foil last month and initially tried the 54 as I currently ride a 55cm Bianchi Infinito. It was too big but the 52 felt just right. They do seem to run a bit big.

    Hey thanks for the info, is your height with shoes on and are you comfortable on the 52? I ride a small giant tcr now that i think mey be to small for me so im comparing the measurements and the 52 foil is very close. I may be 5'9 with shoes on. The bad thing is I live in Trinidad and we dont have a Scott dealer here.

    Don't know about the Foil, but I had a CR1, am just over 5'7" and rode a 52cm. It was pretty much perfect re size.

    That's in bare feet. The fit was done - as you'd expect - with bibs and shoes on. I use Look cleats and Giro Prolight II shoes. If you're the same height as me then you need a 52/Small.
