I’ll keep this brief for now until I hear back from the shop/manufacturer.
I bought a bike back in April from a shop. New with no discount.
Brilliant service from the shop and they were very helpful.
I bought the bike because it felt great and everything just seemed spot on. The geometry was exactly what I was after BUT the BB height was a big concern as it was a little lower than I was used to. Geo on manufacturer website was 12.1”.
I’ve been riding it and it’s felt great however I was getting lots more pedal strikes in the rocky bits which was starting to become annoying, dangerous, etc, etc.
Measured the BB height. It’s actually 11.75” on the stock build. Add the sag whilst riding and you get a v. low BB height.
Little research online suggests that the manufacturer knows. They’ve now changed geo spec from 12.1” to 11.75” online. I’ve got print screen evidence for both plus online posts, although the shop I bought it from still has the old geo on the website.
I’ve sent an email to the shop/manufacturer. What can I expect? Any specific points I should raise with them? Should they swap the frame for the new model with a taller BB? Should I just MTFU? Am I just being annoying?
