Am I right in thinking the x calibre and roscoe share exactly the same frame just with different size wheels and components? I think looking at geo this may be the case. But don’t want to buy a Roscoe frame for my 29” wheels and then find out they don’t fit….
Anyone know for sure?
TIA
They definitely were at one point
I have a vague recollection that not all Roscoe are the same, think 6 might have different rear spacing but I'd check.
Don't the cheaper ones have that 'QR boost' thing?
New Roscoe's were for +tyres, they've morphed more into a trail bike, calibre has a much more XC geom focus
I think the Roscoe 6 is an identical frame to the x caliber. It does indeed have the boost 141 qr spacing like the x calibers and has it’s own geo chart compared to the higher numbered Roscoe models. Numbers that won’t change with different wheels and fork length - like seat tube, chainstay and head tube lengths are identical between the Roscoe 6 and equivalent x caliber size….
That would make sense as I couldn't look at Roscoe 6 as it was non standard boost but the weird qr boost.
Previous version Roscoe was same frame as X caliber and the current Roscoe 6 has retained this older version of the frame.
