Smallish mountain bike - 5' 6 male

converse320 · Jun 20, 2016

I'm looking for something to ride an off road event beginning of July (The Belchford one in Lincolnshire, with my daughter). I don't want anything with suspension, and ideally something that doesn't need assembling would be good. Anybody got anything oldish and interesting? I think I probably need about a 15" frame? I ride a 20.5" road bike and I'm in Lincolnshire. Any offers/suggestions gratefully received. Thank you.

Orange clockwork 17in in orange sizing?

I don't know what Orange sizing is, sorry. I have never actually ridden a mountain bike so am a bit at sea re frame sizes. It's pretty clear that the sizing is much harder to understand than road bikes.

It's a bit smaller than a normal 17in frame hight range about 5'5 to 5'7
