The sizing is a bit funny I found. I'm 5'10" and ride a Small. The effective top tube on a medium is 561mm vs 544mm on a small, so not relaxed for someone 5'7"

Thanks. She has tried her friend's who has this one in medium and thought it felt good. I thought a small might be a better fit; ideally she can do a test ride.
She is coming from a mtb with a very high set of flat bars so it's hard to do a direct comparison. Does anywhere in London have a decent stock of CDFs?

I'm on the look out for a CDF, either full bike, or frame and forks. Probably a M to fit a 170cm (5'7") female with quite a relaxed position. Let me know if anyone is selling.
Also, from a purchasing point of view, is there a big difference in the frames over the years? What are the best years to go for?
