First post here for me.
I am interested in getting a Combi but not sure about the sizing. The Commencal site says S,M,L & XL with the seat tube lengths. However, Merlin Cycles here in the UK have XS, S, M & L. I know that this can't be right but does anyone know if the Merlin XS = Commencal Small? I looked at the bikes in Bike Base yesterday (Commy dealer in Abergavenny) and their Small seemed fine for me (I have a Small 2006 Meta 5.2 alreadyl).
Thanks in anticipation.

There is/was a lot of confusion on this issue. Initially it was thought that Commencal produced more bikes than came into the UK, then that the Uk got the same number of bikes, only sized them differently. Ie, small is XS in UK, with no XL. Still not 100% if this is true or not, I do know the Combi was never available in XL in the UK.

If your local Commy dealer has the bike in the size you want, and you know it fits, why not buy it from them?

BTW- Small is 16" centre to top, XS is 14.5" centreto top.
