• Also finding it hard to get exited about anything else. I like my 4S but after a bike fit, I've basically been told it's never going to work in any size, need rid.

    What's so wrong with selling decent frame sets that have rack/guard mounts, BSA bottom brackets & modest tyre clearance that are not super heavy tourers.

    Did a bit more research and found the Boardman ASR & Rose Pro Cross Randonneur which looks good but falls down on BB and is bike only.

    New 4S sounds like an easy choice..

  • 4S seems pretty standard dimensions for an 'all day' bike to me. Think it was a little short and high in the front so I went a size up from what I'd normally do, bonus: more bag space and less toe-overlap, but I'm running with aerobars for ultras so everything is a bit of a compromise. What freaky dimensions are you looking for?

    The only reason I got the Tripster is because the old 4S Disc had flawed QR dropout design and I didn't want another 4S unless they fixed it. Now it's through axle it'll be fine. But now that I've seen the Resolution I kinda want a black or blue one of those.

  • I ordered a Resolution in August, with expected delivery in early October. I’m still waiting and Mason’s communication on this leaves a lot to be desired.

  • Need to dig into the fit report a little more but think I need a short reach for my height. Height corresponds with the 55.5 but stack / reach is closer to the 51. Think Strael might be my best match with the Regular/Tall geo options.
