Geometry interpretation

What this geometry means

Choose a size

56cm geometry

Riding position

The 586.9 mm stack is tall relative to the 373.9 mm reach, leaving room for a more upright, relaxed gravel position. The 72.2° seat angle is relatively relaxed, shifting the seated position rearward and effectively lengthening the cockpit compared with a steeper seat-tube layout.

Handling tendencies

A 69.2° head angle combined with a 1057.6 mm wheelbase points to calm and stability-oriented steering and chassis behavior. The longer the chassis and slacker the front end, the more the bike tends to favor composure over very quick direction changes.

Archive context

The seat angle of 72.2° sits toward the more relaxed end. Its bottom-bracket drop of 64 mm sits toward the shallower-drop end. The head angle of 69.2° sits somewhat slacker than typical.

Compared with 22 distinct cyclocross/gravel geometries in the Medium-equivalent size cohort from model years 2022–2024 in the Velopedia archive.

Across the size range

From 49cm to 61cm, reach grows by 284.9 mm and stack by 108.3 mm, showing how the frame becomes both longer and taller through the published size range. The rear center stays essentially constant at about 435 mm across sizes, so most of the wheelbase growth happens in the front half of the bike rather than by lengthening the rear triangle.

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.
