If you’re between two frame sizes, we recommend that you test both options. As a guide, you can compare the reach and stack values with your current bike or other well-known bikes that you feel comfortable on. If a test drive is not possible, you can also use the following tips as a guide:

1. With a larger frame, you have more stability and sovereignty.
   You also get more freedom of movement in the bike, with less influence on balance.
   With the larger frame, you have a slightly longer wheelbase, which provides additional safety and stability.
   Therefore, it takes more physical effort and a slightly more active riding style to guide the bike.
   Smaller bikes ride more agilely and react faster to the rider’s input.
2. Even with the same height, every person looks different.
   If you have a relatively short torso and long legs, we would recommend the smaller frame size.
   If you have a long torso and long arms, you should rather go for the larger frame.
