Yeah. I started a topic on Slowtwitch about it and several posters "it's a pig for cross". Then someone actually looked at the geometry I posted and was like "wait, it's not much different at all". Shorter chainstay, headtube angle pretty darn close, only 2mm different BB drop. Easily cured with 170mm crank arms.

I'll try it out, can always just keep the cross bike for literally only cross duty if I need to. Then if the cross course is really dry/fast roll the 3T.
