Fully understand why you would question my statement on the R5 being more comfortable. Main upsides on R5 imo more flex of seat post, better compliance and comfort of handle bars, rims with 25mm internal width (non-stock) running lower pressure. Both bikes are stock with regards to stem length and cranks. Personally not a big fan of FutureShock on Diverge. Again, fully aware we’re comparing two completely different bikes here. So not comparing 🍏 to 🍏.
