How to Size a Mountain Bike: A Beginner’s Guide
To properly size a mountain bike, first measure your inseam. Then, refer to a size chart offered by the manufacturer or bike shop to find the recommended frame size based on your height and inseam. It’s also important to take into consideration the type of riding you’ll be doing and the geometry of the bike, as these factors could affect how the bike fits and feels on the trails. It’s best to test ride a few different sizes and styles before making a final decision.
