Frame Sizing
If you're on the cusp between the recommended height range of two sizes, the absolute best thing is to try to ride them both. At a minimum, check the stack/reach measurements on your current bike and compare it to the new model you are looking at to get an idea of a fit you are already comfortable with. If riding the bike is not an option, consider the following.
Body Dimension
Not all bodies at a given height are the same. If you have longer legs and a shorter torso than the average person your height, that may push you towards the smaller of the recommended sizes. If you're all torso and arms, most likely you'll want to size up.
FAQ's
What kind of headset does this bike use?
This bike uses integrated headset cups. The upper is 41mm and the lower is 52mm. The SHIS name is IS 41/28.6 IS 52/40. The fork uses an integrated 1.5" crown race, with a 36* taper angle. We know that's a lot of specs to worry about, so we made sure that every Stigmata/Quincy comes with a compatible headset, whether you're purchasing a frameset or complete bike.
Where can I find additional technical information for my bike?
Currently all technical info is located either on the product support or tech support sections of the website. Both can provide helpful information for puzzling with your bike, torque specs, and exploded diagrams.
How big of a tire will fit?
The frame and fork will accept up to a 700x50mm tire. Bikes with front derailleurs are recommended with a Max 45mm tire due to tire-FD clearance.
What front derailleurs is the Stigmata compatible with?
We've built this bike to accept electronic FDs, or modern cable-actuated FD's from Shimano (7000/8000/9000 series). Mechanical FDs from SRAM won't work, as they lack the integrated housing stop that's necessary with our cable routing. The FD mount is included with all Stigmata bikes/frames and mounts a braze-on FD to the seattube.
Can I put a dropper post on my bike?
Yes! We've included options for routing internally-routed dropper posts on the Stigmata. Just make sure you order a 27.2mm post
Does the Stigmata work with fenders?
Yes. We designed it to work with up to 700x45mm while using fenders. Tires and fenders vary greatly, so treat these numbers as guidelines, not gospel.
How many water bottle cages will fit?
The Stigmata has mounts for 3 bottles. One is under the downtube, and the other two are inside the front triangle.
What do I need to mount fenders?
Bikes and frames include the custom seatstay mount that we designed, as there is no traditional seatstay bridge on the Stigmata. Other than that, you should only need the hardware that comes with your fenders.
What cranks are compatible with the Stigmata?
This bike uses a 68mm threaded BB, and is specifically designed to accommodate SRAM Wide cranksets or Shimano GRX. These cranks have greater chainring-frame clearance than older road cranks and will provide the most room for whatever chainrings you wish to use.
What size chainrings will fit?
With 1x, you can use up to 42t. For 2x, we've built it to accept up to a 36t small ring and 50t big ring
What brake rotor size is compatible?
The Stigmata uses 160mm "flat-mount" brake mounts. These are compatible with 160mm or 180mm rotors, depending on the adapter/orientation
Can I use "Road+" tires on my Stigmata?
The Stigmata 4 is built specifically for 700c wheels and tires. We don't recommend 27.5.
I want to put a different fork on my Stigmata. What specs are important?
Our fork is 430mm axle-crown with a 45mm offset, so you want to be pretty close to that. If you're looking to put a suspension fork on, the Fox 32TC or Rockshox Rudy with 40mm travel are what we recommend
Can I mount a rack to the Stigmata?
The Stigmata does not have rack mounts, so we would recommend a rack that uses the wheel axle to fit a rack. Old Man Mountain makes some options that will work.
