Dirtbag

would anyone recomend the Transition Dirtbag? O h by the way what what is the standover height for a medium sized frame, I couldnt find it anywhere. :nuts:

[joelsman]

it is a great bike(frame) for the money, there are better bikes but most cost 2x as much or more for the frame. the dirt bags are strong and have good geometry. one of the best deals out there.

I had one and loved it. It's definently a Freeride frame, good for everything except DH racing. I used it as my do-it-all ride, can't complain!

I heard its a great rig. I searched everywhere for the stand over height but couldn't find it. Sorry.

Mine was a medium aka 17", and I'm 5ft 8 inches, it fit great!

Here's their sizing chart.

I think it's pretty damn cool when a company puts up pictures that you send in of you and your ride, or you busting out on your ride, or whatever with the ride on their site. I've got a few pictures of myself up on their site with my DB. Kevin and Kyle are great guys, I got to go to his house and test ride the DB they were sending out to one of the mags for review right before I bought my frame. Great guys, great company, and a great ride.

Im 14 and still growing. Im 5'5 now what size frame should I look into. DOes it seem like it has a low enough stand over height on the medium for me, and last me for a while?

You need a small. I'm 5ft 8 inches, and Kevin told me that if he was my height he'd be getting a small, but I opted for the medium. At your height, the small would be best, unless your genes are to grow you tall real soon, then you might squeeze by with a medium, but check out that chart above, it states height. Look at their website man, they go all the info in there, and if your in doubt, contact Kevin, he's good with returning emails or phone calls and will help ya out.

Rider owned company, those guys rip!

What do you think about the Norco SIx?

[pangeist]

I am 6'2" and 225lbs and ride a medium, fits great.

Get the dirtbag, best bike for the money and the owners are real cool.
If you ask them they'l set up a test ride for you.

As for sizing Ide go with a medium better to get one a little to big than one too small

Get the medium (17in) since you are still growing. And so you won't have to spend another couple thousand in a year or two. You'll be happier with a smaller size but you'll save money with a bigger one in the long range.
