Hey all,
I'm just about 5'10" but tend to be long in the torso and currently on a Med Heckler that I'm wanting to replace because it simply feels too small.

Seeing that the Nomad is about a 1/2 long in the ETT, I'm torn between a Med & Lrg; so I'm curious as to who is riding what size Nomad and how tall you are to gain a little more perspective on what I should buy.

Thx,
Jay

im 5'5 on a tall day and the medium is a little big for me

I'm 5'9 and rode a medium Nomad 1 for 3 seasons and awlays felt it was on the short side. So I got a large Nomad 2 last season and for me, it feels perfect.

Hey Ridge, do you mind sharing the stem length you are used/using on the V1 & 2?

Hey Ridge, do you mind sharing the stem length you are used/using on the V1 & 2?

I ran a 50 mm stem on the Nomad 1 and run a 50 on my Nomad 2 - I'm a big fan of running shorter stems, they really seem to work well with the type of riding I do.

Good to know. My plan is to run a 50-70 for the DH days, but run a 90-100 on the more "Epic" rides. Right now on the Med. I need a 110 just to feel comfy!

I am 5'11" and ride a large heckler w/ a 70mm stem and just purchased the nomad 2 w/ 90mm stem. Nomad feels shorter in the actual toptube. Would ride shorter stems for more aggressive lift access riding.

Im about 6'0" and find my L Nomad to be the right size with a 50mm stem.

Will an XL nomad to big for me for AM, i'm 6'2" and have an inseam of 31.5" and a longish torso. I hear Santa Cruz frames come smaller than usual.

I'm 5'10" also. The medium mk1 with a 70mm stem feels good to me. Been riding it for a long time now.
