Hey everyone,
I was thinking of picking up a new Bottlerocket for some DH/FR stuff, mainly riding places like Highland, some trips to Sunday River, and some local trails. I was looking on their website and the sizing is as follows:
I am about 5'9" (maybe slightly less) so I am on the fence as to whether a Small Bike would be good or if I should go with the medium. I weight about 160 and can be a fairly aggressive rider.
Does anyone around the same height have suggestions as to whether to get the Small or the Medium? I usually ride Medium bikes, so I am not sure as to whether a small would feel too "compact." Looking for input from people who have ridden Transitions, in particular, the Bottlerocket.
Thanks in advance.
