Hi Ryan,
I don’t whether this would bother you or not. I tried a Whyte E-120, same design, but it didn’t fit onto my car roof bike-carrier, because of where the rear shock sits.
I know that I could have bought another type of carrier, but that added to the price.
I think the resale value of the pitch may be more, but that’s not really the question here.
It seemed a comfy bike that i would have been happy all day on, but when I’m on any bike, I’m happy.
