Frame Size | Inside Leg Length |
Small | 27.5-31.5" |
Medium | 30-34" |
Large | 32-36" |
The frame size is the distance between the centrepoint of the cycle's bottom bracket (where the pedal arms extend from) and the top of the frame's seat tube (where the seatpost enters the frame).
Leg length should be measured from the sole of your foot to the inner top of your thigh (in inches) - please note that this is a different measurement to your trouser inside leg length.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
My inside leg length falls between two frame sizes - which should I choose?
Choose the smaller size frame if you prefer to put your feet flat on the ground when stopping. If you prefer to have your handlebars much higher than your saddle, so you are seated in a very upright position, choose the larger frame size; you’ll still be able to put your tip-toes down when stopping. If you are still unsure which size is best for you, please feel free to call us on 01789 292 263 (Mon-Fri, 9-5pm) and we would be happy to advise you.
Can I fit lights?
Yes, whilst lights are not fitted as standard. Our classic LED headlamp and rear mudguard lamp can be installed.
Are the tyres tubeless ready?
Yes, alhough we do install innertubes at the factory. The rims and tyres are ready to be converted to a tubeless system.
What does the Pathfinder weigh?
The Pathfinder weighs 13kg on average (based upon a medium frame, fully built including pedals)
Can I test ride a Pathfinder somewhere?
Our local store in Stratford-upon-Avon, the Traditional Cycle Shop, has a wide range of Pashleys you can view and test ride. You can also find other specialist Pashley dealers who have cycles in store to try via our dealer map.
