I came across the latest deal at planet x and I'm tempted to buy one. Now I'm doubting what size I should order.
I'm 179'ish cm's tall and according to the size guide I should take a Large frame.
However, at this moment I allready own a Focus Mares ax 1.0 in a size large.
At this bike I feel a tiny bit to stretched and the horizontal top tube length of this bike is 553mm.
So when I look at the size guid of the Pompino at size Medium the horizontal top tube is only 2 mm less. And the tob tube size of a Large is 565mm.
So now I'm tempted to go with a Medium and install a long stem and have a lot of seatpost showing.
Please help me to get rid of my doubts.
