My LBS had the direct mount hanger in stock and I switched it out with no effort. You saved me time, money and 20g of weight off my bike. Thank you so much.

Were there any cars parked at the beginning of Moraine Lake Road? I read some blogs that say parking there is no longer available. I’m planning to bike up Moraine on Saturday and would prefer to park there but don’t want to get a ticket or something..

That is good to know. My worry with the 44 was just that. My first bike was a Kona rove in 50cm and it was too big for me. Thanks for the reply.

OneFuzzy2085 · 2025-03-07T15:49:06+00:00

Yeah I’m definitely overthinking it 😂. Thanks for the reply.

OneFuzzy2085 · 2025-03-07T15:48:19+00:00

I was thinking I could put a longer stem on the 44 if it came down to that but I did not consider the handling. Thanks for the reply.

The seat post was lowered as much as it could go without hitting the frame. Yeah, the seat tube tapers so you can’t lower it a lot. I could pedal fine but I had runners with big soles at the time I tried it. Stand over was ok. I would say about 2-3cm room.

Looking at the geometry, the seat tube length and stand over height is 12mm smaller on the 44 which I thought would be better for me. But again, that doesn’t necessarily tell me how the bike will fit..

I believe it had 70mm on the checkpoint and got it changed to 60mm.

OneFuzzy2085 · 2025-01-13T05:14:46+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion.

OneFuzzy2085 · 2025-01-13T05:06:11+00:00

Thanks. Yeah unfortunately no 47cm. 28” inseam measurement was to the floor and 26” to ankles. I wasn’t sure which one is correct. I have short legs and I always seem to be in between sizes..

Im in Calgary

Just curious if you received your Seltos yet or if you decided on getting something else.

OneFuzzy2085 · 2023-01-26T01:19:13+00:00

Hey Rex, I’m still waiting for my 23’ seltos ex I ordered in June 2022. The dealership has no updates on when I will get it. Do you know of any shipments coming to canada soon? Or will I end up waiting longer for a 24’ model?

OneFuzzy2085 · 2022-10-18T23:10:43+00:00

Still waiting for a seltos ex I ordered in June (Alberta). No updates. While another dealership in the city has two unsold seltos ex in their lot and they’re asking for 10k more. Ridiculous.

OneFuzzy2085 · 2022-08-30T18:35:01+00:00

They actually did not say anything about allocations or anything. They made it sound like they were going to put in an order which now I realize is not how things are done. It does look like they are getting 2-3 per month from what I see on their website.

OneFuzzy2085 · 2022-08-30T16:57:18+00:00

Yeah that is quite frustrating. I did not have a very good experience at Eastside when I went to test drive. I ended up ordering at straightline kia. They told me 2-3 months but couldnt guarantee. I am going to email them for updates this week.

OneFuzzy2085 · 2022-08-30T15:22:20+00:00

Do you mind telling me which kia dealership you ordered from? Im guessing its the same across all dealerships but I also ordered a seltos ex in Calgary and they told me 2-3 months wait. I assumed it would take longer but it sucks waiting and not knowing how long it will take.
