@Skooks: I am just under 5’5”. Reach really needs to be around 415mm for my handlebar to BB number to be correct.

Unfortunately another bike that will not fit small adult riders. Bummer. Reach on my 2015 Patrol is 406mm.

First Look: YT Jeffsy Primus Is For Riders From 135-165cm (4’5”–5’5”)

I agree. The lack of appropriate reach numbers on mountain bikes is absolutely ridiculous! As a middle-age man who is 5’4.5” I really struggle to find a new mountain bike that actually fits me. If I could get a longer dropper post and have improved suspension kinematics on my 2015, Transition Patrol, I would rock that bike forever!
