What size is it? I can’t swing another bike right now but a possible buyer would need to know how big it is. Solid starter 29er though! GLWS! ---

Holy shit. Thats a big bike for someone your height. Any room between the boys and the top tube when your standing over it? I’m 6’ and ride a 17" 29er. GLWS this is an awesome bike for a starter and frame is very upgrade worthy if someone were to really get into it. ---

Yes, it’s comfortable when standing and not on the seat. The frame has a lifetime warranty btw and the only reason I didn’t go with the next step up in models when I bought it was because I had plans to upgrade to more premium parts as I got more and more use out of it. As it sits, this is an awesome bike with basically no ride time on it, but rather than have another toy in the garage that doesn’t get much use, I’d rather put the money towards **finalizing my divorce and moving on with my life as a single man** (\<— shameless plug 🙂 ) ---
