• Back to my geometry question - I was just looking at the Arkose and I'm now thoroughly confused - it's beyond me what some manufacturer's thinking is here.

    For my height (181cm) they suggest a size large for the Arkose- eff.top tube of 578mm, stack of 607mm and reach of 398mm!

    Whereas Vitus suggest a medium - eff.top tube of 545mm, stack of 568mm and a reach of 371mm

    That's an insane difference?

  • I would completely ignore suggested heights. There’s way too many factors to consider to be able to give an accurate height range. Go with what you know, or test ride something

  • Add stem length into the equation and I'll bet you'll find controls are there or thereabouts equal
