New bike sizing for 6ft 1" rider

Hi people,
I'm about to buy a new mountain bike, a Saracen Mantra, but I'm a little unsure on sizing. It's between a L and XL, I have nowhere local to try one out so hoping for some input from riders my size and those with knowledge of Saracens (I have never ridden one for reference).
I'm 6ft 1" and have a 34 inch inside leg, my ape index is positive (reach to height), I was initially thinking a large but thinking the XL would suit better, but still really unsure.
Can anyone give me some advice?
Thank you.
