I'm waiting to buy a 2011 Lapierre Froggy but am a bit unsure of what size to buy...

I'm 6'1" tall.

I had a demo ride on a 43cm Froggy (smaller of two sizes) bike, and it's top tube length was the same as my Large sized Ironhorse (6 point 4). It suited me fine but Lapierre recommend me buying the larger 48cm bike. Although they didn't have one for me to demo on that day.

The 48cm frame seems quite a jump and I wouldn't want to loose any of its playfulness. If you've got one can you help me out by recommending a size. I really don't like feeling stretched out on a bike. Thanks

Hey Anderwho,

I have a 2009 Froggy 718 size 48 and I'm 1m 86cm don't know how tall that is in ft / inch. There was no doubt in my mind that I needed the larger size after I had ridden both, there wasn't enough maneuvering space on the 43 for me. My mate, who is about 1m 80cm went for a size 43 and regretted it after half a year of trying to make it work for him (he rode DH mostly while I use mine for Enduro mostly).

Hope this helps
