He's putting together another wheel for the cross bike with more low gears to compensate. So we think that'll be good enough for NC mountains. (I keep telling him he needs to work more on the 'engine' and less on the bike!)
My thought is that he is selling this one now because it is slightly too small for him, and he'll hope that a new bike with a lower geared triple is in his future if we move out west.
For those who didn't notice, with the Chorus wheels, this bike has a 28-29 gear combo that'll get just about anyone up most mountains. Honestly, if my legs were just a bit longer, I'd keep this bike for me to use when my conditioning is off (like now)!
Edited to add:
I'm working from home today, so I just measured the bike.
Standover is 31"
TT from center of seat post to center of head tube is 21"
