I have an original 2016 Cross Current & going by seat tube, standover height, & horizontal top tube length; my medium CC is more equal to the large CCS/CCX. Can anyone who has done the upgrade confirm this? I'm 5'7", but the my MED CC fits well, but small in CCS/CCX is recommended for my height.
Original Crosscurrent to CCS/CCX Medium Equals Large?

At one point, the end of 2017 or beginning of 2018? their ads were saying it was a totally new frame design, I never did figure what changed besides the sizes.
I think the only difference is that they lowered the seat tube by 1” on the medium. I have a medium frame and having ridden the ST Cross Current (which also has a 16.5” seat tube) I don’t think there’s any meaningful change in geometry on the medium frame. Are you planning to get a CCX?
Fast-forward to 16:00 where Tora says they did it to add more room for suspension seat posts.

I could have saved $300 if I had waited to purchase today, pisses me off. I should just be thankful that I have and will enjoy it. It will be my main hobby besides walking in the parks with my wife..................................to above poster, congrats on the new bike. It's a beauty!
Just pressed the order button for a medium black using the 0% loan for 6 months (12 months adds interest). Thinking of how to set things up. Will probably swap over current marathon tires & sell the stock ones. Swap the BB if possible since I replaced the current one with a Shimano not too long ago. & swap the Rock Shox air fork if the steerer tube lengths are the same. I wish there was an loyalty discount or just give me an extra charger.

Congrats, I'm jealous.
Depending on which credit card (assumed) that you used to purchase, and if within 90 days, you might qualify for "price protection". I use it all the time with my Citi cards and it definitely comes in handy on some purchases. Look into your CC benefits...

Yep. I'm avoiding ads for Black Friday sales of the Note 9, which I bought 6 weeks ago. I'm glad I got it, I use it a lot, and I'm not sorry I bought it (despite the premium price.) I don't need to know how much someone saved by getting one now.

Youth. How many miles on your original CC?
18000 miles would make me a happy camper even if a new bike was in order.

He needs to see if Juiced would buy it back. They could mount it on the wall!
