Awesome thread! I have a Creo SL, which come with drop bars. I would like to go to flat bars now. What would you suggest for parts? I know brake levers, bar, but not sure about shifter stuff. Thanks.

Were the 700c tires you tried the Biways also, because they offer it in 700c as well and I was thinking about the 44 in that tire.

Could someone provide the P/N for the proper FSR cable for the left shifter mod? Thanks!

I tried at one of the largest dealers in California. Competent...dunno. I’ll try others, thanks.

Thank you! Can’t find that anywhere here in the States. :(

Yes, it “appears” like 42 should work, and I was thinking the Gravel King SS would be a good start.

Whoa, like MTB tires! ;) I do want to keep in 700c size for now.

I was going to post similar question, but I’ll just tack onto this, itok. I am curious what the widest 700c and 650b that will fit, with a little mud clearance. I’m guessing that a 700c x 43 will fit, but what are the limits?

Just want to thank you guys for your time and input. I found a large SL Expert EVO (gently pre-owned, as they say) so we’ll give that a whirl. Already ordered the turbo road remote buttons, so I’m well on my way to financial ruin.

No, actually was referring to this statement. Thanks!

Do you happen to know the P/N? Thanks

@jodi2 & @itsmel Thanks for your responses, it DOES help...more data=better tools for decision process. Unfortunately the only large is 200 miles away and we’re in the middle of a state wide emergency with a polar vortex crashing down. No water or electricity for many, at least we currently...

@davidceder Re sizing, I’m kinda the opposite of you...longer legs, shorter torso. That said, here are the stack/reach of my current rides, C-Dale being the best fit: C-Dale Synapse (56) S= 590 R= 386 Parlee Chebacco (M) S= 577 R= 373 Creo SL (M) S= 592 R= 379 Creo...

Interesting...I just assumed that the Creo came with 170mm. My Levo SL came with 170mm.

Test a Diverge...good idea, however the Spesh dealership was bought out by Trek recently, so I’m not sure where to get a ride. As David suggested, toe overlap may be the more critical issue that cannot be resolved, other than maybe going to a 650 wheel/tire. I’m looking into that.

Toe overlap...yes that is an issue with my MED gravel bike, especially when going up a steep incline out of the saddle. Not much you can do with that, but I’d bet you can get enough saddle adjustment to correct the knee over balls of feet, just fine. Thanks for the input.

@eddief you are correct. Problem is some of the measurement line up with the MEDIUM and some with the Large. I’ve had trouble in the past with STACK & REACH numbers alone, but it is a good place to start. I’m 5’10” 32” inseam, and 34” sleeve length as a basic sizing, and as I said, the Spesh...

I need some help with Creo SL sizing. I have a 56 C-dale , and have a 55 gravel bike that both fit me well. If I go to Specialized web site, the fit guide says I’m probably a medium, so not too much to go on. I wonder if you nice people could give some input to ease my troubled mind. I got...
