By the way, the frame came with a 170mm rear thru axle, and it seems to fit GX t-type derailleur

Hey everyone,
Another new user asking for size recommendation lol

I'm getting a frameset next month, but i'm torn between size 49 and 52.
I'm 1,73m with a inseam of 80cm and a saddle height of 69cm. Usually riding size 51-52 bikes (or S on some brands).
Reach and stack wise, i can fit on both sizes. I would probably run a slammed 80-ish cm stem on a 52, while i could run a longer stem on the 49 with at least 15mm of spacers.
I'd rather have a nimble bike than a small boat, so i'm tempted to go with the 49 but i'm worried it will be a bit on the "too" small side.

Anyone in the same size bracket with any advice or feedback on their bike so far ?
Thanks a lot.

Hi!
I'm exactly the same proportions as you. Went for a 52 frame with a short stem. But I'm looking for a more stable ride on steep descents, more front-center, less toe overlap with a big front tire. Will see how it goes, the bike is currently in the making

Hi!
The 171mm rear stock axle was a bit long with the usual dh, the seller sent 168, its length was fine.
For the rear (because I ordered a new one not long ago)
L : 168 mm
Thread Length : 15mm
M12 X 1.0

Thanks guys!

142x12 rear and 100x12 front. If that’s what you’re asking?

No. I'm asking about actual length and thread pitch. Axles usually longer than 142 and 100.
Would appreciate if someone can measure.
