Are the geometries for these bikes all that different?
I have in mind primarily off road touring and rail trails, so I'm not sure if the four corners 50 cm (2 inch) tire clearance is enough or if I'll want more in the future.
I'm also curious, in your opinion is the stargazer worth it? It has a dropper post but other than that seems fairly comparable in specs.
Thanks for your input! I just have a salsa rangefinder at the moment, looking for a rigid, steel, 29" bike. Open to other suggestions
