HT, I used to have one and it was too small for me, my 2009 19" is too long and I'm trying to compare how the geometry (tt length mainly ) has changed over the years (the Stumpy range seems to have got longer !), I can get geometry figures for 2009 onwards but not the earlier stuff, i.e what I'm trying to find out is are modern 17" frames longer than the earlier ones.
Both my old MF and the Orange e3 are 19 " but are much shorter bikes.
