x1 extreme xs too small?

[2005avtj]

I just bought a 2004 extreme x1 I had the intention of using it as a parts bike, but when I sat on it the size felt right. It’s an extra small and I am about 5”9-5”10 my escape is a 18 and I had to shorten the stem a little bit and now it feels good. My question should i spend a little more to get it up and running? I haven’t got the chance to ride the bike yet because its missing the crank set.

If you decide you dont want it pm me............

You say its a XS ??? would that be a 14" ???

At your height that would be way to small you will be better off with a medium.

Yea I believe it is, when I was looking at the down tube it has an “S” and an “X” behind the “S”. I am not sure if its just the graphics but that’s what it looks to me. I did measure the down tube and it measured out to 15 ½.

Yea I was thinking that…I guess ill take it to LBS and ask him if the bike fits me correctly. My LBS is awesome! I got lucky he mainly works on MTB’s.

Sounds like a great idea.
