That seat tube/reach ratio disparity is seen with the small (1.03) and extra large (1) too.Ĭanyon explains this by saying that they use rider height data to generate the best seat tube length for the saddle height requirement with dropper post length factored in and do the same for reach, though taking "rider feedback as well as changes in wheel size and developments in geometry trends" into account as well. That contrasts with a medium being 440mm reach for a 440mm seat tube - a ratio of 1. A large has 470mm on a large, paired to a 455mm seat tube - that works as a ratio of about 1.03. When it comes to reach and seat tube sizing, it's a bit longer across the board but strangely it isn't that consistent across the different size bikes. Ground clearance is retained by using dinky 165mm crank arms across all sizes. The bottom bracket height has also been shifted from 340mm to 336mm which, given the large wheels, means that there's a fair old drop below the axles to increase stability.
Despite the shift to big wheels, head angle remains at 66º in downhill mode and the seat angle is 75º in the climb model - those change to 67.5º and 73.5º respectively. At 435mm across the board, the stays are pretty short for a big travel big wheeler too, though a fair bit more than the 423mm of the old bike. The Strive has also seen some geometry tweaks over the old bike.
