Hills kill me these days and I live up one so it's time to get some gears! As road bikes for a heavy 6'5" tall gent are hard to come by I am considering a CX bike mostly as kinesis do 63cm frames which are pretty good value and I guess CX kit should be harder wearing. As its only for fairly relaxed riding to get my fitness back and cover some miles Is there going to be a huge difference in geometry and position that means that a CX bike on the road is not a great idea?
