Hi team I’m 6’4 and coming from an s5 kenevo and it’s a perfect fit. Any tall guys riding the rise and how is the fit? Thanks team.

I am 6’2” and ride the XL and it is slightly bigger than my Kona Process 153... the height of the seat w/the dropper post slammed is a little higher and I only use the full extension of the dropper post when I am climbing. I am a long armed 6’2” and the reach is nice!

I'm 193cm and have the Wild FS in XL and I find it big enough, It's the biggest bike I've had so far.
just looked at the Rise and the XL has a 500mm reach, surely that's plenty?

I am 6-2 and ride a Large Rise. It fits me really well. I do typically run a shorter stem on most bikes because I have way longer legs than torso, but still have zero complaints about the Rise's geo and fitment. Happy to answer any specifics that you may have, LMK.

6' 5"/195cm - XL a really good fit for me.
I've had a longer reach bike before and prefer the Rise. I wear trousers with a 35" inside leg if you're looking to get a feel for upper to lower body size

new model is slightly longer so closer to your S5 I think
 
I am 6’ 2” but have a longer torso and have an XL and feel really good with my position in down hill steep… the only complaint I have ever had is the bottom bracket height so go with shorter cranks to reduce pedal strikes.
