    Just trying to work out how to translate road bike fit to cross bike.

    For tarmac use, try to keep it the same.

    The fork might be a little longer to allow for bigger tyres and mudguards. The wheelbase will also be a little longer.

    But if you take the reach and stack from a well fitted road bike. You wont need to take these things into account.

    If you're riding trails on it. Then high drops, and a lowered saddle, are nice for control. Desending down steep muddy slopes is easier hanging off the back with your hands in the drops. I coud'nt do that with my road position.
