I've been riding a pinarello prince disk road bike for the last year, and while its a very capable bike, i'm starting to regret it due to the state of the roads around where i live, and the fact i'm finding it a bone cruncher on anything over 20km rides. I had a bike fit just after purchasing.
I'm thinking of changing over to a gravel bike to do mainly road riding still, but with an amount of light trail riding also. Having compared the geometry of my current bike to something like the specialized diverge carbon or canyon grizl CF SL 8, does a few MM in reach, stack and fork angle translate to a comfier and more forgiving ride?
I think the suspension fork or stem/seat post of some of these gravel bikes could help also.
Many thanks.
