What frame size do i need?

[R1 GTR]

I'm about to order a Specialized Hardrock sport. A while ago, i found a tool on evanscycles.com for finding the right frame size but now, when i need to order, i cant find it! If i am 175cm or 5'8 1/2, do i need a 17" or 19"?

17 inch woud be my opinion!

Yep, I'm 5'8 and I've got a 16" Kona Fire Mountain. If anything I could probably get away with a slightly smaller frame...

2007 specialized catalogue has a sizing guide on the back...let me see... Hardrock 17 inch for blokes between 5'6 and 5'10.

Think it would be sensible as im 15 and still growing to go for 19 though?

I have a HR Sport 19" and I am 6ft, it is fine but I could probably get away with the 17" also. So unless you're planning to grow alot I'd get the 17".

The size guide on the Evans site only appears for certain bike types - Pinnaccle and Cove Frames to name but a few.

I have a 17" hardrock sport, i am quite short at 172cm roughly, and to be honest, although the bike has done me for years, it is a tad big for me. I now buy 15 inch frames

you will be happy with a 17", it is right size even if you grow, trust me you would not need a 19",

but the choice is yours,

good luck,
