Looking at these framesets for a new winter road build. Any owners out there who can give some feedback?
The v1 and v2 framesets are both available at the moment. The v1 model can be had for about £200 less and the geometry would probably suit me slightly better (I.e. I’d be able to run it without spacers rather than 10-15mm of spacers on the v2 frame).
I’d be looking to fit some Kinesis Fend Off mudguards which I already have and run 28mm Conti 4 Season tyres which come up to about 30mm on the rims I have. Will that work on the v1 frame or do I need the extra clearance of the v2?
Any other feedback from any owners of these bikes? Is there any other good reason to go for the v2 frame? They seem to have made some tweaks to it but nothing too major as far as I can tell.
