help me understand geometry!

Disclosure: I posted this in the mtb forum, but this is where I hang out so I figured you guys could help me too!


Hi Guys-

I'm between these two bikes, which happen to be the same model. Im considering going between the new model and the 2016.

I know what the reach on the 2017 is (439mm) but I don't know what it would be on the 2016.

Where things get confusing for me is the disparity between the top tubes on the large model.

The 2017 TT is 620 mm with a 67.5 HTA and 73 STA

The 2016 TT is 600mm with a 69 HTA and 73 STA.

So what does all this mean with regards to fit? Why would the Large suddenly grow by 20 MM.


might be worth noting the 2017 is a 27.5+ while the 2016 is 27.5

Thanks!
