Sizing for your Beinn 29
To ensure your Beinn 29 is a safe and comfortable fit please see our size guide.
Approximate minimum age Minimum inside leg Maximum inside leg Approximate minimum height Beinn 29 Small adult 71cm 81cm 157-170cm Beinn 29 Medium adult 79cm 86cm 170-181cm Beinn 29 Large adult 85cm 94cm 181-195cm It’s important to firstly measure your inside leg. If your leg fits in two size brackets, choose the size that also matches your height.
How to measure height:
- It’s easier to get accurate measurements if you have someone to help you with this
- Remove your shoes and stand straight, back against a wall.
- Place a book on your head so that it touches the wall.
- Make sure you still have your heels on the ground, then mark with a pencil where the bottom of the book touches the wall.
- Measure from the mark to the floor.

- It’s easier to get accurate measurements if you have someone to help you with this
- Take off your shoes and stand straight, with your back against a wall.
- Place a book between your legs and slide it up the wall to meet the crotch firmly as if you are sat on a saddle.
- Make sure you still have your heels on the ground, then mark with a pencil where the top of the book touches the wall.
- Measure the distance from that mark straight down to the floor.

Lightweight, ergonomically designed bikes that are a delight to experienced and inexperienced riders alike
The Beinn 29 frame is built from strong, superlight aluminium with supple chromoly forks. This makes it incredibly easy for riders to pedal on a variety of terrains, from family rides, picking up some essentials from town or commuting to and from work.
-
Simple but effective gears and brakes
A lightweight single front chainring and wide range 10-speed cassette delivers a full range of gears to tackle any climb. The SRAM X5 trigger shifter and rear mech use a 1:1 cable pull ratio, resulting in crisp and precise gear shifting in all situations. To complement this the SRAM BB5 disc brakes give powerful, fingertip control whatever the weather.
-
Size specific componentry for the perfect fit
Each Beinn 29 small, medium or large model features lightweight size-specific cranks, stem and handlebar to ensure a super comfortable fit. Our anatomically correct saddle is designed to work perfectly with the Beinn’s natural upright riding position.
-
Ride without limits with strong, lightweight wheels and versatile all-rounder tyres
Beinn 29 wheels feature Islabikes' own disc-specific lightweight rims and hubs laced with stainless steel spokes for a smooth, responsive ride. Quick-release cams mean easy wheel removal for transport, storage or puncture repairs.
The Beinn 29 is fitted with durable, smooth-rolling tyres that feature reflective sidewalls and a puncture resistant Kevlar strip. Alternatively, we can fit a pair of Continental Race King mountain bike tyres if you’ll be on the trails full-time or legendary tough, puncture resistant Schwalbe Marathon tyres for daily commuting or distant exploring.

Designed with practicality and versatility in mind
Choose additional options such as tyres for other needs, a custom Islabikes luggage rack and mudguards or just a bottle and cage. Whatever you need for your adventures, our expert mechanics will fit them.
