Just wondering if someone can help guide me in purchasing the right size bike, i am 6ft 4ish with a 35inch inseam, torso 27" and 24" arm length. I am looking at the Cube Acid 29er Mountain Bike. I planned on getting the 21" frame, not really sure though.

You might need the next size up but some like a slightly smaller frame when sizing a mountain bike. Both should be okay for you.
The only way to really tell is to throw a leg over.

Would the 21" frame be more suited in my case, as my inseam is 35" and the standover height of the frame on the 21" is 33.3", unlike 34.2" on the 23" frame. I would like to be able to firmly plant y feet down if need be.

Also, is cube a decent brand?

I found Cube to be big bikes, I had a small 16. At 5'8" a medium was too big.
Cube stereo MTB for reference.

I guess it depends on weather you like a big bike or a small bike fit.

I personally don't like being stretched bar wise as it does my neck in.
Plus stand over of course ,not keen on a Nads whack either:laugh:

Being 6.3 and having lanky legs, hopefully, the 21" XL should be ok, your making me think i should have goten the large now :/

I think you've just answered your own question.

TBH Only you can tell that, I have 2x Cubes an Attention & an Acid, although geometicarly virtually the same the Acid feels more comfortable, I'm 6ft & have a 19" frame suits me.
