I have discovered despite what they say, size actually does matter! Im currently riding a Giant OCR 2 size med which I have been told maybe to big. Therefore Im looking at changing pretty soon. Im 5'7 and wondering if anyone could advise me on what size would be better suited?

It comes now to more than frame size and height I am affraid
From what I gather inside leg measurement is also important as this determines the length of the crank and I guess the length of torso and arms will play a part in getting adjustments for the handle bars etc.
I'd suggest going to bike shop and asking there or get a mate who cycles(like what I have done) to help you out with sizing etc
Other more (bike) worldly wise on the forum will probably be able to offer more specific advise
