Q: I'm In Between Electric Bike Sizes, What Should I Choose?

Ben, our head of content has been going above and beyond lately. 

Working overtime and weekends to answer as many chats and tickets as possible. 

One common question he gets is: "I'm 5'7" or 5'8", which frame size should I choose?"

At these heights most people could go either way. If you're wondering this same question, Ben made this video to help out.

The safe bet for anyone is to choose the smaller frame size, if you're unsure. I like the 23" frame, though I'm right on the edge and could swing either way.

One thing to note, in this video you'll notice the seat is quite low. I actually prefer it a bit higher than that as in the pictures below.

Note:

Also the flexibility of your riding posture based on how you place your hands. 

Regardless of your size, you'll be able to make fine adjustments to the seat height and seat placement to suit you.

In addition the Babymaker II is made with standard bicycle components. That means if you like, you can customize just about anything on the bike once you get it.

Different seat, suspension seat post, longer stem, adjustable stem, new bars... the possibilities are endless.

When deciding on what electric bike works best for you sizing is so important as it can truly make or break the ride. 

City bikes like the Babymaker II aren't just about performance but, its about comfort-ability as well. No one knows the best comfort for your ride then you!
