Do Atherton bikes deliver dialed fits?

They offer lots of sizes, but is that enough?

Our friend Brian asked:

I'm curious what your opinion is about the bike brand Atherton, which has 22 different sizes as well as a custom size option for the A line and 12 sizes for their S line. Reach increasing by 10mm per size on their S line.

Have you ever recommended or tried riding one of these bikes thats sized correctly

Does this brand fall into the category of bikes that don't fit the way you say they should, or does this brand offer the kind of size options that will pass the LLB test?
