Do you guys think a MED in a Winspace SLC 2.0 would be ok for a 5'10" rider ? Frame sizing is here : https://www.winspace.cc/product/slc2-frameset/?v=3e8d115eb4b3

Let me start off by saying it's a sick bike and I highly recommend it.

It's hard to give an educated guess knowing only your height, but I think it's possible.

For comparison:
I have an SLC 2.0, I'm about 5'9" and ride a 490. I feel it fits me well. FWIW I think I could achieve a good fit on a 520 as well.

Thx ! Can this be an all round bike? I see it's advertised as a climbing bike. But I like to just do whatever comes my way :) Hills up or down , on the flats etc.

Isn't the SLC3.0 around the corner?

It should be however slightly more expensive than the current SLC2.0, or you wait for November sales

I'm 6 feet tall and went with a size large. No clue why Winspace has yet to update their website to reflect the 3.0 frame.
Still working on my review video, but so far the bike is great for what it is.

I am 186 cm. Do you think the large frame is too small? And is the new SLC 3.0 worth the money instead of the SLC 2.0?

I'm typically between sizes so I always opt for the smaller frame with longer stems. The new 3.0 has been great, but I haven't ridden the 2.0 so I can't compare.

Winspace said they focused their attention on making the SLC 3.0 ride more like the SL8 than Aethos. I'd say the 3.0 is probably a mix of both.

SLC2.0 just got a price drop that has made it very attractive IMO. I just bought a Tantan R5.... if I had known the SLC2.0 was getting this price drop I would have waited.
