Questions & Answers for Rocky Mountain Vertex 29 SE 2011

Question
What size frame would you recommend for a 6ft normal build rider, 33inch inside leg ?

answer 1
The formula to find your ideal frame size is:
Take your inside leg and subtract 3" to get the standover height of the frame for you.
I.e. your frame should have a standover height of 30".
This is not an absolute, some people prefer more clearance, some less, but I would recommend 3" as a minimum to minimise the risk of injurious collision with the frame.
Hope this was helpful.

answer 2
Based on your measurements I would suggest the 19" size to give good stand over and comfortable reach. Some riders may prefer to drop down to an 18" size, running more seatpost extension, to get a shorter reach but at 6" I think you would be on the limit of the seatpost extension if you went down to the 18" and you may feel a bit cramped.

Question
Frame Size and Delivery to Indonesia
Hey Team Wiggle - would like to confirm a frame size for my 178cm height. Using the supplied chart it looks as though the 20" would be the recommended choice but keen to hear your advice. Also, are you able to deliver to an Indonesian address. Grateful advice - Indonesian Mtb'er
