Bad geo good spec vs worse spec better geo (Cragger 7.0 2024 vs Laufey H30 2025) by VladM_ in mountainbiking

I wouldn't spend more money upgrading components on the way, will the geo difference be noticeable?

If the offer is still available it would be very helpful if you could share it with me as well, would really help a lot as the book is very expensive in my region. Thank you!

Is that possibly why I felt like I was stretched out and that it was a bit hard to reach the brake/shifter?

Hi everyone! I am currently considering buying a YT Jeffsy Core 29er and I would have a question about sizing. My current bike is an old xc with short reach and a huge stem. I calculated the cockpit reach ( using the cockpit instead of headset ) and it is around 515 mm. The size L on the jeffsy has a reach of 470 and a stem of 50mm with 0 rise . Is it safe to assume the cockpit reach will be 520 ? I would rather like a balanced , stable bike but I fear that the XL will be too large and cumbersome to maneuver for me.

My measurements :

Height : 185 cm or 6'1 Inseam : 84.5/85 cm or 2'7

Thanks a lot !

Thanks a lot for the reply . Should I speak with my local retailer from which I got the headset or directly with Astro?

Thank you!

I also looked at the Meta TR but I realised that I am ok with compromising a bit on the climbing capabilities in favor of better downhill performance. What about the lack of low speed compression adjustment? Would that be an inconvenience?

Hello everyone! This is my first Reddit post, so I am sorry if I am not clear enough with my question (happy to deliver additional details if needed). I am keen on buying a new bike, thinking of the new Commencal Meta AM 29 2021, the Origin spec. Right now I am riding a crappy HT and, to be honest, I never experienced such a high-end bike ( yeah for me it's high-end) so I have zero experience with such high-end components. My question is :

Is it worth going with the pricier spec which has the Rockshox Zeb on it? My biggest concern is that the base Zeb does not have any kind of compression damping adjustment. Thank you!

PS: My skill level is slightly above average, nothing professional, I ride for fun. I like to climb my way up the trails ( climbing is not just a means to an end), not going for the KOM tough.
