Hey all, just looking for some thoughts on the bike fit.
Local supplier didn’t have the bike I wanted in stock, so I’ve used the Merida size guide on their site and grabbed a size S – not sure if this looks right or an XS is needed?
Any help/advise would be great, thanks all

Def doesn’t need to be smaller
Looks good. Your posture is slightly off, but that’s a no issue. You want your back to be curved like a hump, at the moment it’s going inwards, which means you are pushing your chat forward! Relax
Think an XS might have been too small. That one looks about right but hard to tell because leaning against the wall doesn’t represent things well.
This looks fine. An XS will probably be a little too small in the reach especially and may force you to go with a really short stem which will worsen handling and stability at higher speeds.
Seat might be touch too low. Also, you need to put your feet in the right position on the pedals to get better idea. Not in the middle of your foot.
Why are we inundated with bike fit questions? Is this sub the first result in Google or something?
It’s not gravel related, it’s repetitive and adds nothing to the sub (only asks) and no one can do a good bike fit from 2 blurry pictures…
