QUOTE(TwinCam @ Jul 3 2013, 03:31 PM) all are 9 speeds..sora grupo wat budget have you?another point to consider is also the bike shop factor... you will in-inevitably go back to the shop for minor tune ups and stuff like that...so, don't pick a bike where it seems fantastic but you hate the shop operator to the bone... |

they don't mention sizes by number... but their xs is very close to spez's 49... only a couple mm longer on the top tube and they gain a 20mm head tube for that size...

longer headtube, easier to slam. but can't afford to have longer toptube even 5mm.
actually apollo's geometry is about the same as kuota. i've rode on size 50 kuota, not really suitable This post has been edited by miaopurr: Jul 3 2013, 04:49 PM |
