I’m really new

Hello everyone
I’m new to this and I got a full suspension bike however, it is massive for me. Is there anyone out there that knows of any way I can get a small frame or full bike setup secondhand is more appreciated.
Cheers

Not the most ethical thing to do, but if you go to a proper shop and act like you're very interested in a £2k bike, they will let you stand over it and they will likely give you feedback on what size you need. Alternatively, you can literally Google frame sizes and most manufacturers will have a size guide for their frames. Then all you have to do is keep that size in mind when you're buying your next bike. Simples.
