Looking for a XXS mountain bike

Hiya mm35

Yup - a Titus I think. I have an XXS & am about 5'1" - I did a lot of research & it was definitely the smallest I could get. Someone on this forum got the same bike & her SO swapped out the wheels for 24" (he was a mechanic so knew how to make it work). I emailed her privately as I considered it & she said the bike rode well.

By the way - don't be fooled by the standover height posted on the Titus website (unless they have changed it since I bought mine) - apparently the measurement is way out & is nowhere near as low. When I challenged them, they said the measurement was actually where the top tube met the seat tube - I challenge anyone to standover at that point . . . Even given that, the Titus is still the smallest high quality mtb out there. Of the Santa Cruz I think I remember that the smallest blur actually has a slightly lower standover height than the smallest Juliana - but both bikes are still bigger than the Titus.

There are other options.

Rocky Mountain makes a XXS element that is tiny.

Yeti made an XXS ASR last year (no more aluminum ASRs this year ) you could look on Jenson for a new one (Jenson got all of Yeti's stock I believe) or keep your eyes peeled for one for sale. I own one of these...it's smaller than a Titus with respect to both effective top tube and standover if I remember correctly, but it's going to be hard to find .

And certainly Titus as well.

Just remembered:

Giant's XS women's Cypher is pretty compact and has excellent standover for an extra-small. Could be worth a look if you want a little more travel (or slightly less cash outlay)
