Looking to get a hardtail shortly and had the option of the two frame sizes. Was thinking of going for 15" as it would be more flexible to do some xc as well maybe. 14" seems a good DJ size but didn't know if 15" would be too big?

Ben

well that would depend on your height really.

the 14" would definetly be more easy to throw around, however if you are a tall guy then it would be easier on the 15" as the 14" would be just plain cramped.

Cheers ended up going 15". I knew the top tube was an inch longer as well but it feels spot on. Had seen Fireye were doing a 13" frame which had just made me think twice as to a 15.

it probably is on their site, but it won't look that much different in a photo.
