Bike 1 / Bike 2

Top Tube 24.00 / 23.85
Head Angle 68 / 68
Seat Angle 71 / 71
Ch Stay length 17.36 / 17.36
C - C 14.30 / 14.27
C - Top 19.50 / 20.75
H Tube length 4.63 / 4.63
Wheel Base 44.77 / 44.07
BB Height 13.8 / 13.85
Stand Over 30.5 / 30.9

What will be the differences in the ride characteristics?

Thanks

[i]What will be the differences in the ride characteristics?[/i]

too many other variablesreally - even if they're both made of the same material the tubeset will affect ride.

Geometry is the same with one just having a lsightly taller seat tube.

not much in it in terms of 'fit' really - you'd just have an inch less seatpost showing in one.

intrigued by this ^^

20"ish seat tubes but the top tube intersects 6" lower down? Both sound ropey as ****!

What are they?

I assumed there was a TT-ST brace thingy going on there, GW.

They are both Titus El guapos

Bike 1 is a post 2009 Large frame size
Bike 2 is a pre 2009 Large

I bought 2nd hand and thought I was getting a 19.5 i.e. Bike 1

Turns out I got Bike 2 and was concerned re the 20.75" C-Top. Seems it might not be the problem that I had thought - just an inch or so less post showing?

Wwaswas - brace is right!
