Hi Spots!
You are right, I may have overlooked this fact thinking that stem length and bar reach would be somewhat standardized… Stack and reach is obviously not enough to compare complete stock bikes. Unfortunately it is quite a pain to get all this information from the manufacturers. I used the same great tool to narrow my search, will have to go deeper and add stem and bar length to really compare these bikes.
Are stem length and bar reach chosen by the manufacturers to provide the best handling of the bike or is it somewhat random? Should you trust them blindfold and therefore prefer bikes that will best fit you with their stock parts over a similar geometry bike with alternative parts ?
For example would there be a noticable handling difference if you were to replace the 93 reach bar of the Domane by the 70 reach bar of the canyon ?
