Here at Patrol Mountain we have long understood and enjoyed the thrill of electric mountain biking. For the past few years, we have offered our rugged and dependable Patrol E-Six E-Enduro bike and our versatile Patrol E-Zero hardtail, but for 2022 our eMTB family is growing.

Disclaimers
Everybody is different, so the values in our tables are only guideline values. For example, women and men differ greatly in their body proportions. The frame sizes are the same for men's bicycles and women's bicycles. However, what clearly differs is the frame geometry. In some cases the top tube is shorter for women's bikes, in simpler terms: the distance from the saddle to the handlebar is shorter to better suit the female physiology.
Additionally, regardless of your gender, different people may have different length arms, legs, reach etc. which can skew the ideal frame size. It’s also worth noting that the size of the wheels can play a role, particularly in Mountain Bikes. The bigger the wheels (29er for instance) the taller the bike is.
Between Two Bike Sizes?
If you fall between two sizes, no need to worry! Many bikes have an adjustable stem, so you can change the angle of the handlebars until the bike fits comfortably. And last but not least, the frame size can influence the handling characteristics, so if you’re after a nimble handling frame you can choose the smaller size or if you’re after additional stability, a larger frame may be best for you. Our rule of thumb: The more time you plan on spending on your bike, the more attention you should pay to the size and fit of your bike. A professional bike fit will go a long way to ensuring you’re both comfortable and efficient on the bike and is highly recommended to keep you and your bike performing at their optimum!
