I have an size L and I am 179/84cm. Size L would probably be a very nimble bike for you, but I don’t think XL would be bad either. Maybe XL would be more comfortable when sitting down? I run a 50mm stem, tried a 35mm but it was a bit short for my liking.

I don’t know if this helps, but I would probably go with XL for your size.

I was considering XL but chose L and I am happy I did, it fits me really good.

Thanks for the input, the more I look and compare to other bike geometries, the more I'm convinced XL with ~35mm stem is the way to go for me

I got the detailed prints from Katie at Carbonda for both L and XL if anyone is curious to dig more into those (only saw the detail print for the S size earlier in the thread).

I'm 185cm tall with a 84cm inseam (without shoes on), 188cm/87cm (with shoes) and I'm trying to decide between L and XL. My hardtail that fits like a glove is a 2022 Honzo ST L, FC is 794, reach is 475, stack is 648. FM1001 in L seems really similar in these measurements according to the print, but still hesitant based on most here saying the FM1001 is ~1/2 size small. Any insights from y'all?
