Hi there,
I'm considering buying KTM Revelator, 2015 model, but the frame is just the same as in 2014.

  It's quite ok, but the cockpit feels a bit too low - I use 100mm stem, positive angle, on 2cm spacer.
  KTM has a slightly bigger Stack and longer seattube than Merida, which indicates that simply BB is lower.
• I sat on both 55 and 57 and both seem to require totally different stems & seatposts: bundled seatposts have a huge setback, so even on 55 my knees were behind pedal axis in KOPS (knee over pedal spindle) test.
• KTM's fitting guide advises even 59, but I guess it's a total crap.
• By merely looking at the geometry and my dimensions I guess it would be 57. Unfortunately, as far as "looking at the geometry" goes, I am a total newbie.
  However guys from a local shop strongly advise 55, which leaves me totally confused and clueless.

Please help
Perhaps somebody is riding Revelator and can advise ?

I ve tried this model on a dealer... I am 1.80 cm.

57 is ok for me...go for it...

Thanks!
Eventually I ended up with 55. I will probably use 0 offset seatpost and 100-120 mm stem for that. Searching for my ideal position in progress : )

I also talked to someone riding 57, but he's taller. We both agreed: 55 was the one to pick.
I think 57 is no option for an average 1.80m guy, but if you're happy with it, that's cool. You can change a lot with seatpost and stem.
