Felt F5 - Choosing the right size

Wiggle are selling the F5 for a decent price so thought I might grab one on the cycle scheme.

I cant work out what size I should go for though.

I currently ride a 52cm aventon mataro so thought maybe the 51cm would be best but the 54cm is also a possibility based on the below size guides.

I'm 173cm tall but unsure of my inseam which i will have to measure tonight.

Any ideas?

@Sumo has (had?) this. Felt are quite race geo, long and low. Compare stack and reach inclusive of spacers and stem length/angle.

Thanks @amey ! Yes @Sumo did have one so be cool to see what his thoughts are.

I think I've seen one in at work in the bike room so I might have to be a stalker and fine out who it belongs to

I'm about 193, I had a F4 in a 60cm.
I never got comfortable on it.
I bought mine from wiggle, just a tip; screen shot the price as when I bought mine it was jumping around in price and they denied this but said they'd honour the price I quoted, if I had evidence. Luckily I did as I'd sent it to my brother!

Yeah I have an F5, I'm 6' tall, got the size 56 one. It's long and low, the headtube is 3 cm's shorter that I really need so have to use spacers. Saying that it rides really nice, the handling is great and it's stiff/comfortable/all that shit.

Awesome cheers for the info! Looks like I'll get the 51cm.

Check the head tube length and compare against the bike you have that fits

So after staring at sized guides and doing measurements and not getting anywhere. I realised that my Aventon is a 55 not a 52 and it all make so much more sense. 54cm is going to be ordered.

Have you got it yet?

Not yet. Only completed the cycle scheme on Friday so it'll be a while. I'm being patient for now.

I was going to get the parts for my build through it but didn't have the patience.
