THE LIQUID-LIFE FRAME SIZES GUIDE
The right size for your new bike
The decision has been made, the dream of a new bike will come true. Now the only question left is the right size.
We would like to help you find the right frame size with our size guide.
Of course, it's best if you test your dream bike in different sizes in our store. But what do you do if you don't have the opportunity to test ride the bike live?
Don't worry, after reading our guide you'll know all the tips and tricks to find out your size.


THESE FACTORS AFFECT THE FRAME SIZE
What factors actually influence size?
The three main factors are your height, your stride length and your riding style.
It goes without saying that your height is a good indicator of which size is the right one. A person who is 185cm tall has a larger bike than a person who is 165cm tall.
Long legs and short torso or long torso and short legs?
Both people are the same height, but have different requirements when it comes to frame size. The stride length helps us here. Combined with your height, our online calculator will give you a good suggestion.
Playful and agile through curves or would you rather be in race mode over hill and dale?
Your driving style coupled with personal preferences also plays a role.
It often happens that you are between two sizes. Our tip if you are agile and maneuverable and want to feel comfortable in tight corners is the smaller frame size.
If you are looking for stability and want to stand a little more centrally in the bike, the larger frame is more interesting.
