Size M: 1.66 m to 1.77 m tall.
Size L: 1.78 m to 1.89 m tall.
Size XL: 1.90 m to 2.01 m tall.
If you are on the edge between 2 sizes: Choose the smaller size for greater manoeuvrability and comfort (straighter back).
Choose the larger size for a more stretched out position (better suited to speed).
