Yeti 303 Sizing

i was 5'11" on a large, and it was too big FWIW

I'm 6ft on a medium.

I am 5-9 and my medium fits well.

look at the wheelbase measurements, not the toptube measurements.

Im 5 10 and rode a medium.

No,just the headtube.

I've been looking into these myself aswell.

are the graphics different as jensons sites shows? The tapered seems to have the same graphics as whats on the yeti site

Non taper is last years colors, ano black new is painted.

Jenson has a good price, Go-Ride is even better.

I am 5'10" and will order a med, 5'6" I would get a small.

Yep im 5'10/5'11 and I would get a medium myself.

eny yeti owner can vounch of tube thickness ??? hollow sounding or thick strong like bull sounding ???

I have a 2010 303R-DH with the Tapered headtube. I am 6' on a Med. I personally like the paint on the 2010's(tapered headtube) a lot better than the 2009's, but that's just my opinion, and looks don't make you faster or a better rider.

As far as tube thickness, it is thicker than the 2010 glory and the Session 88. It feels very stout to me. For someone like me who is hard on their frames and crashes a lot it seems like it is going to hold up well for a long time. It might not be the lightest frame but I think Yeti found a good balance between light weight and strength.

I have heard the 303R-DH performs better with the RC4. Something to consider if the 09 has the DHX5.

Thank you for that.
Total win

I am 5'9" and have a 2010 Medium with tapered HT. What is kind of cool is the new 180mm 36 will fit this frame perfect, just a thought. I have the new paint job and purchased mine as the kit from Big Tree Bikes in Seattle. It replaces my ancient Demo 9. Things to note, super stable. amazing in any corner, sucks up everything like a plow bike however it jumps. It jumps when you want and what you want if you don't want to jump it is stuck to the ground. So basicaly you can point and shoot a section or change direction anytime you want. Mine has the RC4 but I have also had a fresh DHX5 from my Demo on it. I can bottom the DHX5 but not the RC4 (almost). With the DHX5 it feels like a 8" bike with the RC4 it feels bottomless and all the good traits are multipied, get it with the RC4. The bike never spikes or blows through any part of it travel it is so consistant everyware. GET ONE NOW!
