"After receiving the large frame dsx within the estimated timeframe, assembly took less than an hour, everything was shipped in good shape. After the first ride, I immediately ordered a 110 mm stem and a four inch riser. Since I’m nearly 6’2”, I should have ordered the xlg frame, that was suggested by YouTube reviewers, however, the xlg was not available when I placed my order."
