Velopedia analysis
What the specifications mean
The 327% cassette range describes the available gearing more clearly than the component-group name alone. The rims and tires are tubeless-ready, but that label does not confirm the bike is currently set up without tubes; tape, valves, sealant and tire condition still matter. On the steel frame, paint damage and moisture entry deserve attention because corrosion can begin at scratches, vent holes or internal surfaces.
Gearing
327% cassette range
Calculated from the published 11–36-tooth sprocket span.
Tire setup
Tubeless-ready
The rims and tires may support tubeless use, but the bike may still be running tubes.
Frame material
Steel
Paint damage and moisture entry matter because corrosion can start externally or inside the frame.
Bottom bracket
Threaded interface
Shell width, thread standard and crank-spindle interface still require confirmation.
Used-bike inspection
If you’re buying this bike used
Before any test ride: both brakes should stop the bike firmly and release cleanly; both wheels should run true and be securely attached; tires should have no casing damage; and the headset, handlebar, stem, cranks and pedals should have no looseness or play.
Follow the full used-bike inspection order →- FrameCheck paint chips, vent holes and the inside of the seat tube for corrosion. Also look for dents, bent tubes and cracking around welded or brazed joints.Inspect the frame and fork →
- BrakesTest each brake separately and confirm it stops firmly and releases cleanly. Inspect the pads and braking surfaces for wear or contamination, and check the cables or hoses for damage.Inspect the brakes →
- DrivetrainShift through the full range under light load, measure chain wear and inspect the cassette or freewheel teeth. Skipping or hesitation can indicate wear, poor adjustment or mismatched parts.Check drivetrain wear →
- Wheels & tiresSpin both wheels and watch the rims for side-to-side or vertical movement. Check for dents, cracks, loose or uneven spokes and hub play, then inspect both tire casings for cuts, cracking or exposed threads. If it is set up tubeless, confirm both tires hold pressure and ask when the sealant was last refreshed.Check wheels and tires →
- Bottom bracketTurn the cranks slowly, feel for rough bearings and check for side-to-side play. Creaking under load deserves investigation but does not identify the source by itself.Inspect the bottom bracket and shell →

Geometry interpretation
What this geometry means
420 geometry
Riding position
The 512 mm stack is low relative to the 370 mm reach, giving the frame a performance-oriented, lower-front-end proportion with more potential for a stretched riding position. A 75.5° seat angle puts the rider relatively forward over the bottom bracket, shortening the effective seated reach compared with a more relaxed seat angle.
Handling tendencies
The 70.8° head angle points to more stability-oriented steering geometry. Head angle is only one part of steering feel; fork offset, trail, wheel size and cockpit setup also matter. A 74 mm bottom-bracket drop places the rider relatively low between the wheels, which can add a settled cornering feel while reducing pedal clearance compared with a higher bottom bracket.
Archive context
The head angle of 70.8° sits toward the steeper end. The seat angle of 75.5° sits somewhat steeper than typical. Its stack of 512 mm sits somewhat taller than typical.
455 geometry
Riding position
The 525 mm stack is low relative to the 375 mm reach, giving the frame a performance-oriented, lower-front-end proportion with more potential for a stretched riding position. A 75.3° seat angle puts the rider relatively forward over the bottom bracket, shortening the effective seated reach compared with a more relaxed seat angle.
Handling tendencies
The 71.6° head angle points to more stability-oriented steering geometry. Head angle is only one part of steering feel; fork offset, trail, wheel size and cockpit setup also matter. A 74 mm bottom-bracket drop places the rider relatively low between the wheels, which can add a settled cornering feel while reducing pedal clearance compared with a higher bottom bracket.
Archive context
The seat angle of 75.3° sits toward the steeper end. The head angle of 71.6° sits toward the steeper end. Its stack of 525 mm sits somewhat taller than typical.
485 geometry
Riding position
The 543 mm stack is low relative to the 382 mm reach, giving the frame a performance-oriented, lower-front-end proportion with more potential for a stretched riding position. A 74.8° seat angle puts the rider relatively forward over the bottom bracket, shortening the effective seated reach compared with a more relaxed seat angle.
Handling tendencies
The 72.5° head angle points to moderate and balanced steering geometry. Head angle is only one part of steering feel; fork offset, trail, wheel size and cockpit setup also matter. A 72 mm bottom-bracket drop places the rider relatively low between the wheels, which can add a settled cornering feel while reducing pedal clearance compared with a higher bottom bracket.
Archive context
The head angle of 72.5° sits toward the steeper end. The seat angle of 74.8° sits toward the steeper end. Its stack of 543 mm sits toward the taller end.
510 geometry
Riding position
The 387 mm reach and 562 mm stack form a moderate road-bike proportion, balancing cockpit length with front-end height rather than pushing to an extreme race-low or endurance-upright shape. A 74.5° seat angle puts the rider relatively forward over the bottom bracket, shortening the effective seated reach compared with a more relaxed seat angle.
Handling tendencies
The 72.9° head angle points to moderate and balanced steering geometry. Head angle is only one part of steering feel; fork offset, trail, wheel size and cockpit setup also matter. A 72 mm bottom-bracket drop places the rider relatively low between the wheels, which can add a settled cornering feel while reducing pedal clearance compared with a higher bottom bracket.

530 geometry
Riding position

Handling tendencies
The 72.9° head angle points to moderate and balanced steering geometry. Head angle is only one part of steering feel; fork offset, trail, wheel size and cockpit setup also matter.

Archive context
The seat angle of 73.8° sits toward the steeper end. The chainstay of 415 mm sits somewhat longer than typical. Its reach of 394 mm sits close to the middle of the group.
550 geometry
Riding position
The 402 mm reach and 599 mm stack form a moderate road-bike proportion, balancing cockpit length with front-end height rather than pushing to an extreme race-low or endurance-upright shape.
Handling tendencies
The 72.9° head angle points to moderate and balanced steering geometry. Head angle is only one part of steering feel; fork offset, trail, wheel size and cockpit setup also matter.

570 geometry
Riding position
The 409 mm reach and 619 mm stack form a moderate road-bike proportion, balancing cockpit length with front-end height rather than pushing to an extreme race-low or endurance-upright shape.

Across the size range
From 420 to 570, reach grows by 39 mm and stack by 107 mm, showing how the frame becomes both longer and taller through the published size range. Chainstay length grows from 410 to 415 mm across the range. That size-specific rear-center strategy helps the larger frames grow at both ends instead of adding all of their length ahead of the bottom bracket.
Geometry describes frame proportions and likely tendencies, not a ride test. Rider proportions, cockpit setup, tires, suspension settings, wheel configuration, and component choices can materially change how a bicycle fits and feels.
