I currently ride a kinesis tripster (Ali version) which I really like but I keep toying with the idea of buying a pro 6.

Has anyone used both bikes and can give me their opinions on which is best?

I mainly use it for commuting and the occasional long ride home. In winter I put fatter tyres on for a few bridle ways etc. I’m no racer by any means.

Is the pro 6 lighter or faster due to the geometry?

Both great bikes.. pro6 more racy proper CX bike.. Tripster more relaxed, slacker do it all bike. Had both and prefer the tripster..

Tripster ATR finally built up – lush!

If you can afford it and want an awesome bike buy the tripster. If not just buy the Pro6 which is still a great bike.
