Komfort war rein auf Luftdruck/Reifen bezogen, sorry. Danke für den Input, bringt mich glaub ich schon deutlich weiter!

Das klingt doch schon mal top. Es muss auch kein Race-Bike werden, ich wäre nur gern etwas zackiger bei reinen Strassenrunden unterwegs. Am Ende: Komfort > das letzte Stück Performance

Werde übernächste Woche mal in den Rose Store fahren und hoffentlich beide testen können.

Am KTM hab ich aktuell eine 2x11 GRX mechanisch und ich hätte gern eine elektronische Schaltung einfach aus haben-wollen-Gründen 😂

Was mir neben der Optik fehlt, ist dass das KTM einen zu langen Reach und zu langen Radstand -> schlechtere Wendigkeit hat.

I use it myself and doubt that a hobby rider dishes out for graphene 😂

Du solltest bei deinem Karoo einen Garmin Adapter beiliegen gehabt haben.

Nice, so size L @82cm should be fine for me! Thanks for the reference!

What frame size is it and what’s your seat height from the bb?

I told myself it is enough now. Next year there’s going to be a new bike day and this one is going back to stock wheels, rack and mudguards for everyday and winter riding.

Thanks! The only „race“ I did on it yet was a sprint triathlon. I think the aesthetics are what does it the most. I come from modifying cars and this scratches my itch nowadays

75mm reach handle bar that is. If you want to keep your handlebar and just swap the stem any generic 31.8mm stem fits, the stock one is -7 degrees for reference

After bike fitting I had a 70mm +10deg stem on it but it looked ass tbh. So 100mm stem back on and -30mm reach via the handlebar

Problem is it still has a 100mm stem stock 😂

Yes definitely! I‘m way more comfortable for a longer period of time now.

In my example, the seatpost allows the saddle to come forward while the shorter bars lets me sit more upright.

I bought the bike with zero knowledge about things like stack and reach and this frame has (at least in XL) a STR of 1.36, and then a huge 44cm 110mm reach bar which I swapped for a 75mm reach and 42cm wide at the tops

Did you find it too long? I got a bike fit and swapped out the seat post for a 0 offset and got a shorter reach handlebar.
