Used-frameset inspection
If you’re buying this frameset used
Before buying: confirm the serial number and exact model, inspect frame and fork alignment, and inventory every included axle, hanger, clamp, headset part, cable guide and proprietary fitting.
Inspect the frame and fork →- 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 →
- Included hardwareInventory every axle, hanger, clamp, headset part, cable guide, frame plug and proprietary fitting included with the frameset. Confirm replacement availability before treating a missing small part as insignificant.
- AlignmentSight along the frame and fork from several directions. Confirm that the fork, rear dropouts, head tube and other visible interfaces appear straight; professional measurement is appropriate when alignment cannot be established visually.

Manufacturer-published geometry normalized for consistent archival comparison. Effective top tube and reach remain separate measurements because they describe different aspects of fit.

Geometry interpretation
What this geometry means
X-Small geometry
Riding position
The 584 mm stack is tall relative to the 352 mm reach, leaving room for a more upright, relaxed gravel position.
Handling tendencies
A 68.5° head angle combined with a 1067 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. The 462 mm chainstay is on the longer side for a drop-bar chassis, generally favoring stability and tire/heel clearance over an especially compact rear end.
Archive context
The chainstay of 462 mm sits toward the longer rear-center end. Its reach of 352 mm sits toward the shorter end. Its wheelbase of 1067 mm sits toward the longer end.
Small geometry
Riding position
The 605 mm stack is tall relative to the 366 mm reach, leaving room for a more upright, relaxed gravel position.
Handling tendencies
A 69° head angle combined with a 1083 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. The 462 mm chainstay is on the longer side for a drop-bar chassis, generally favoring stability and tire/heel clearance over an especially compact rear end.
Archive context
The chainstay of 462 mm sits toward the longer rear-center end. Its stack of 605 mm sits toward the taller end. Its reach of 366 mm sits toward the shorter end.
Medium geometry
Riding position
The 633 mm stack is tall relative to the 371 mm reach, leaving room for a more upright, relaxed gravel position.
Handling tendencies
A 69° head angle combined with a 1099 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. The 462 mm chainstay is on the longer side for a drop-bar chassis, generally favoring stability and tire/heel clearance over an especially compact rear end.
Archive context
The chainstay of 462 mm sits toward the longer rear-center end. Its reach of 371 mm sits toward the shorter end. Its stack of 633 mm sits toward the taller end.
Large geometry
Riding position
The 661 mm stack is tall relative to the 388 mm reach, leaving room for a more upright, relaxed gravel position.
Handling tendencies
A 69° head angle combined with a 1126 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. The 462 mm chainstay is on the longer side for a drop-bar chassis, generally favoring stability and tire/heel clearance over an especially compact rear end.
Archive context
The chainstay of 462 mm sits toward the longer rear-center end. Its stack of 661 mm sits toward the taller end. Its wheelbase of 1126 mm sits toward the longer end.
X-Large geometry
Riding position
The 680 mm stack is tall relative to the 412 mm reach, leaving room for a more upright, relaxed gravel position.
Handling tendencies
A 69° head angle combined with a 1158 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. The 462 mm chainstay is on the longer side for a drop-bar chassis, generally favoring stability and tire/heel clearance over an especially compact rear end.
Archive context
The chainstay of 462 mm sits toward the longer rear-center end. Its stack of 680 mm sits toward the taller end. Its wheelbase of 1158 mm sits toward the longer end.
Across the size range
From X-Small to X-Large, reach grows by 60 mm and stack by 96 mm, showing how the frame becomes both longer and taller through the published size range. The rear center stays essentially constant at about 462 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.
