I'm thinking of changing my Whyte Suffolk frame for an RTD 80 from Planet X. Looking at the sizing and geometry (and being very tall) I'll need an XXL.

One thing that doesn't add up for me is the stand over height that is listed. It says it's 938mm which seems extremely high to me. I asked Planet X about this and they said that it is correct but I'm really not sure how it can be? My Whyte measures at 830mm and the geometries are not that far apart.

Anyone any experience with these that can clear this up or have any ideas?
