Bike Size – What size do I need?
Bikes come in several frame and wheel size combinations, therefore it is important you buy the correct size , to enable you to get the most enjoyment out of your bike.
Our easy to use size charts help you to select the correct size bike for you. But by far the best way to buy the correct size is to pop in and see us. Try before you buy, come and try our bikes to find the one for you.
How do you measure a bike?
Adult bike sizes are normally measured from the top of the seat tube (where the seat post fits into the frame) down to the centre of the bottom bracket axle (the axle which carries the pedal cranks).
When you are sat on the saddle, your feet should be on tip-toes touching the ground on either side, and you will be able to reach the handlebars comfortably with out over stretching yourself.
