Does anyone have experience of comparing the ride between these two?
Am thinking one of these will be a sensible move as at the moment I end up riding an Xc hardtail for mixed road/gravel in this supawet weather which am getting fed up with…my racey skinny tyred road bike ends up being useful for only a few months a year around here. Have been lusting after something like this for a while and will probably end up being my most used bike. I would go for a simple GRX 1X build.
Not mad keen on another carbon bike, though that Colnago G3X is very tempting – had a Ti hardtail before and loved it but wheels became too small. Robust weatherproof buttery comfort are my main aims.
I will have to buy unseen as from other end of country, from what I can workout they’re very similar, Reilly a touch more affordable with lower stack height being a fit difference- Enigma a touch more classic looking, maybe neater finish? Hydroformed tubing on the Reilly I believe….both far eastern made which doesn’t bother me as long as quality is there.
would likely buy in 700c and run biggest tyres possible as most use will be road ( Xc bike will be kept for proper XC)…the only thing is when it does get offroad round me it’s very rough so must have good offroad manners and comfort preferable to outride speed.
Anyone ridden both?
