    Default Anyone have a Niner M frame?

    I've ridden Mielke's MCR Size L and liked it a lot but the website recommends M for my height. Didn't know if anyone knows anyone who has a M frame that I could try on for size before pulling the trigger. JensonUSA has '11 Niner Air 9 frames on sale for $519. Thought one of those might look good hanging in my garage.

    Yep, we got three of 'em. The sir9 is pretty much the same as the Air9. What's yer inseam/height? I'm on the bubble between M and L and since I prefer a smaller frame the M has been fine. If I was to guess, I'd think a L would fit you better, but you're welcome to try my sir9.

    Pretty sure I'm a 32" inseam. I'll take your advice on the size but will take any available excuse to ride with you. When do you expect to be out next? If it's not too much trouble, I'd love to take the Sir 9 for a spin. Thanks!!

    Take book, stick it firmly in your crouch, and mark the height. Take that number HERE and you'll get a rough idea what size you need. You can then take that inseam number and times by 1.09 and get a rough estimate of what your seat height should be.

    I'm glad we're multiplying by 1.09 for a rough estimate... geesh
    ANYTHING can be fixed...how badly do you want it?
