Our digital design process and small-batch production allow us to offer an unprecedented sizing range. Note: All geometries are un-sagged.

Use your height to find your baseline size:

  • If you have long legs and a short torso, consider sizing down

  • If you are all torso and arms, consider sizing up

  • If you prefer a more stable ride, consider sizing up

  • If you prefer a more nimble bike, consider sizing down

  • More info here

Sizing Tips:

  • Small sizes have a 120mm travel fork in order to keep handlebar heights exactly where they need to be

  • We suggest sizing around 50mm stems

  • Our stack height is higher than other brands. As a result, less spacers are needed to get the handlebars into your ideal position. This keeps the cockpit feeling roomy

Color

Every Neuhaus bike is available in these 18 color options. Powder coating is done locally in the Bay Area, CA. Custom power coat colors are available for an additional $300. Wet paint is not offered at this time for cost, time, and environmental reasons.
