Very coincidentally, I'm 168cm tall and have been riding size S bikes for over a decade because people always say you should try to go for a smaller size bike. It wasn't until a few days ago when I had to choose an M size enduro for various reasons that I realized that the M size actually suits me better, and that the larger size makes me feel more confident and comfortable on the bike!

Currently watching your new Videos regularly since I got back to biking in Summer this year. Really enjoying your content and the style auf your videos. The quality with the new equipment I instantly noticed. Keep up the great work Rémy 🙏

Great video as always Remy! the bike looks sick. You should do a video in a month or two so we can have a long term review aswell. Im considering buying a larger bike aswell (im 180cm), maybe ill go for a L.

Totally agree with moving to a bike you can feel more centered in. Been riding mtb since the 80s, been on size L for the most of it, until I picked up an XL frame for a trail bike. As I have gotten older, I prefer less twitchy and more stable riding. My old Intense M9, size L, always took time to get used to feeling like I was going to immediately go OTB when I stood up. Note, as the bike geo has gotten longer the head and seat angles are making the cockpits small. For enduro or trail I use longer stems, 60mm, to get the feel I prefer now. I also go for a higher overall bar height to get the bars up, helps with old injuries.

I feel the same like you I’am 1.92m and I ride 2 years a bike in Large and before 2 weeks I bought a new bike in XLarge and it feels much better than the bike in Large.

I'm 5"11 (180cm) and I ride a XL (reach of 505mm) after riding L all the time. It felt perfect and much better than the L. Personal preference I guess?

Longer arm reach vs T-Rex arms, I'm 6" but more comfortable with a reach in between 470 and 490, depending on the bike...

​@@LaurentiusTriarius That's it. The overall height is only a rough reference point. The Important figures are things like arm length, leg length, upper body length.

I'm 5'9 and went from large to medium. Way better for my taste. Lost some stability but gained a lot in riding position and maneuverability

The fact you put reach deduction headset only confirms it is not good to go too long. I am 175mm and went with Giant Reign size large with 480mm reach, it's super stable but not playful anymore.

Great video!!! I feel people tend to go to small on bike size thinking it will be more nibble. But they end of sacrificing cockpit space and stability

If you ride like him and push the boundaries in speed and steep it makes sense to size up. I you are an average rider than stick with what is comfortable in your terrain and speed IMO

It’s definitely all personal preference! I personally think bikes are getting way too big (looking at you Knolly). When I’m coaching I see riders with bikes that are far far too big. I’m 6 foot exactly and my Atherton 200 is a 460mm (maybe 465 with the dh stem) and my atherton 170 is a 470mm reach and I feel those are perfect. But to each their own!

I'm 5'10" and have always been on the fence between medium and large frames. I've always opted for the medium to have a more playful bike. But...my butt always hanged off the back of the seat to get the most comfortable position when peddling on trail. Maybe I've had it wrong the whole time.

What is the seat tube angle on your bike? The "butt off the back" is usually a combination of long legs + slack seat tube angle

I'm 6'5 and will be riding a XL Propain, but reach numbers on Propain bikes are substantially less than a lot of other brands. XL are often shorter in reach than L for others. Why is that?

Reach are useless without stack numbers If you ride a bike with different stack with same reach your stance or how you stand on the bike will be different.
