Guys looking at the evil sizing I'm 5 FT 8 and it says a small frame is suitable , anyone have any thoughts , the reach is 8mm shorter than my medium zesty but I'm running a 35mm stem on it would the small calling feel similar with a 50mm stem ?
Thanks

I'm 5'11" so probably between sizes but I went with the Large and still find the bike to be plenty snappy and flickable. My guess would be a M for your height unless you really want it twitchy. Of course, you'll know right away once you get on one...

Yep you want Med. im 5,11 195lbs and large is perfect.

I studied this for weeks before pulling trigger. I ended up using a 31mm stem 8 degree rise that worked perfect.

I’m 5’8 and a high inseam and and the large frame fits me really well for faster downhill riding but the medium is more fun for playing around. Even for my height I can run a 170 dropper on the large and still be comfy so it depends on your wingspan and inseam. The large for me feels like a new medium 5010. That’s the best comparison I’ve found. I think small would be way too small.
