Sasquatch Sizing...

[snotty]

This is for those that own or have ridden a Norco Sasquatch...Im about 5'7" (dont laugh)..is a medium gonna be a good fit, or should i try and get a small?
Of course i am going to test ride, but i am just trying to get some information before i do so.
Thanks all

heya mate
i ride a manik, (same frame). im 5'6, and ride a small. i couldnt find any mediums, otherwise i wouldve got one. wot sort of riding do u do? coz maybe you would be better with a small, if u were to only dirtjump and street ride. i found i had to get a longer stem, as the fitted 50mm was a bit short.
overall tho, there isnt a huge diffence apart from a bit of top tube length between the sizes, which is why i wasnt to fussed with a small size.
btw, where are u getting urs from? there sweet FA of them left in the country.

depends... small bikes are great for maneuverability, but suck for all day riding, and the inverse for big bikes. You may be able to get away with a medium for your height, but depends on your intended riding as much as it does your body type.

all very vaild points...thing is i am going to be using it for pretty much every, lucky i can test ride it!!

as for how i am getting it: Apparently a number of the bikes have just flown into the country. Bike Addiction (Sydney) will have some in a few weeks, only in medium and larges apparently....

if you a 5'7" go for the small. ive got a medium norco torrent (im 6'5") and suits me perfectly.

my mates got a small torrent and hes around the same height as u and loves it. however im sure there is not a whole lot of them left in that size so get cracking.

5'10 and on a medium here.... I would like a small for trialsy streetie dj'ie stuff.... But a medium is good for pedaling around.

5'11" on a medium here as well. Very very comfortable for pedalling around and still small enough to be esaily maneuvered. Just got mine today, there are still some out there if you look hard enough.

FYI: SHM bikes (aka city cycles) has just sold out of them (to yours truly :wink:)

hey i got a meduim and im 5'6''

sounds a bit big but im mainly using it for free ride, and i think its a good size

I'm about 5,9 and I ride a medium. I thought it might have been a bit big for me at first but I didn't have many options for sizing. After riding it for a few months I'm glad I got a medium as it suits me perfectly for trail riding.
