Asking for a friend!! They’re 6’2. Would XL be too big? Where they’re wanting to say, smash Keppoch on weekends and take it trail riding back home. Any suggestions or leads on any pre-owned. Budget is 4000k max 
Any helpful input is valuable and appreciated. Thanks for reading!

That’s 27.5, regrettably! Not sure if it’s convertible to 29, though!!
Xl is where it’s at. At 6 foot plus I can’t imagine anyone riding a large

I’m going to have a 2019 XXL Santacruz Hightower for sale in the near future. It’s a 29er with 160mm in the front and 135mm in the rear. Shimano SLX 12s, xt 4 piston brakes, etc.

Might be a bit too large for them, I’m afraid 
Wee more travel than they’re seeking, too. But I appreciate the insight and will totally keep it in mind, regardless!!

From what I understand, they prefer a bit more playful/poppy and “flickable” frame thus the demand for a large!
I’m 5,7 riding a large get a lx for sure
@Giverrns hit up @a.mart see if your budget and needs matches that bike is killer and will be well maintaned if so. @SQUATCH deals with him all the time hear nothing but glowing reviews

Similar height and have never ridden a L bike always been an XL.
