In my search for a new bike, I have found the following websites to be very help in assessing whether the bike would fit me. If anyone else is looking to find a new bike, these have been helpful to me.
Supply chains issues combined with my indecision has been a challenge or maybe a blessing in disguise from a budgetary perspective. I went to the local Trek shop to buy one of those and the soonest might be next summer.
The two bikes/frames that are available and seem of interest to me are the Enve Melee and Felt AR FRD. Both are too expensive. The Enve can take 35mm tires but some have ridden it with 40mm, plus it has fender mounts which is sort of rare for a fast carbon bike. It has a very generous crash/damage replacement policy. The Felt is rather unique in many regards, expecially the seatpost design and clamping mechanism. The SP is split like the Canyon SP. It is supposedly 113% more comfortable than the previous Felt AR frameset SP, which I rode in 2015 on Paris Brest Paris using 25mm tires. This new AR Felt can supposedly take 30mm tires. I'd like 32 mm but 30mm should be ok. That old AR was fast as stink and surprisingly very comfortable despite being a little noodly in the headtube, it would like to wander a bit on bumpy corners. Both have partially hidden cables. I don't want a full integrated mess to deal with.
