What's curious is the sizing - the reach is 322, 366, and 408 mm (for XS, S, M, respectively). Those first two sizes are VERY short* (and then there's quite a jump up to a more conventional medium size). While at a glance the size chart is a little strange, I think there's a case to be made that this bike is good for pretty short people or, in the medium sizes, average-sized people with short legs (given a uniformly low stack across the board).
*By comparison, I'm 5'5" - Ribble recommends the size S to me. It has a 366mm reach. I currently ride a bike with a 382mm reach and a 120mm stem. There's no way either the S or the M would fit me with a reasonable setup.
Yeah I had noticed that, I was looking at the medium. With the differences in geometry I had actually started to think they had made errors in the figures
