My other half wants to buy her first serious bike, so we went to Evans today just to see some in the flesh; she really liked Charge's Scourer. There are some good deals online but I'm a tad confused about sizing...
She's 164cm tall with a 77cm inside leg. This is what Evans says:

This is what Wiggle says:
Frame Size Rider Height (cm) Inside Leg (cm)
X-Small (15") 163 - 170 71 - 76
Small (17") 170 - 173 74 - 79
Medium (19") 173 - 178 76 - 81
Large (21") 178 - 185 81 - 90
X-Large 185 90
They don't match. So which one to go for?
She's coming from an upright girl's town bike, so I'm thinking small so that she's not too stretched out, which may be a tad alien. Any thoughts?
