MTB and road stack/reach don't really compare. You could be looking at having your bars 30-50mm higher and 20-40mm closer on a trail bike than a road position. You don't want to be going over the bars when the trails point down. The current trend for MTBs is to have a long top tube, slack head angle and short stem. My colleague went for the 15inch, absolutely loves it and her husband then bought the same bike in the next size!

Thanks looks like a great suggestion!
How do you equate your road bike stack/reach with mountain bike reach?
According to this the stack is a lot higher, but as is the reach. But then again MTB stems are a lot shorter, yeah?
