Looks great Andy - what tires are you running on there? Rene Herse?

I'm still getting my fit dialled as well, but love the build quality and ride feel so far!

I have Rene Herse 32mm on right now as I want to compare ride to my currently most used bike so using same tires for now. May go up to 35s for road (rims are 25 internal) and have a set of 650b with 47mm tires for chunky gravel type rides.

This is also my first electric shift bike so a bit of a learning curve setting trim on front derailleur etc when I swapped crank but so far so good!

It is a really well finished frame - surprised these don't get much attention compared to the more prevalent brands.

Can anyone give me an idea of the standover heights for a Medium and Large, as I am on the fence as to which size to go for due to my short legs (741mm saddle height) / long torso (approx 183cm tall). TIA.

You can use https://www.bikegeocalc.com/ to draw both frames and it will output stand over height in extra.

Great, thanks, I have used bikegeocalc before and had no idea the "Extra" button gave the calculated standover (as well as other things). Looks like the Large is the better fit/closest match to my current gravel bike, so thanks stalkersk, although the calculated geocalc figure for my current bike is about 20mm less than it actually is!

I run the same saddle height and I'm 181cm. My frame size is M, with 100m stem to the bottom. I would use a slanted or longer stem for a more aero position. The L's head tube would be too long for my liking. You may enjoy an M with 120mm stem?
