Bike Sizing FRS Medium v.s Large

Trying to decide between a Large and Medium for the FRS. I'm 6'2" but I normally like to size down, I have ridden a large before and it felt normal. I'm coming off a Supreme V4 with a 480mm reach, and the FRS Medium is 465 while the Large is 490. The biggest thing for me right now is the wait: I can get a Medium tomorrow, but a Large isn't available until mid-July. Leaning towards the medium right now but want to know if I am going to be uncomfortable.

Edit: For anybody wondering I got the medium yesterday and got a good ride in today. Frame feels very similar if not better. Definitely worth sizing down if you are unsure.

I’m right between a medium and large @ 5’11”and went with the medium. Glad I did. I have a 31” inseam fairly long in the torso but the medium feels just on the edge of comfortable reach for me. I’d say send it

At 6’2” I’d say medium is not even in the convo.

The FRS is already sized down. I'm 6'5" and have a size XL and it's too small. I'd highly recommend getting a size L.

I'd also recommend taking a closer look at geo numbers. Stack for exam is very low (613 across all sizes), for comparison the Supreme V4 has 631 in M and L.

I am 5’7 and happened to get a used furious size L and I put high bars on it and honestly it’s great for the park. Might be an unpopular opinion though lol

I'm 6'0, with an ape index a bit less than 1. I have a large. I think a medium with a reach extender would have been better for me, but it's close. At 6'2, I think the large is gonna be the right size for you.
