how did the geometry compare though? My gravel bike is a brick, 4130. The main thing that bothers me about it is the flop. I keep threatening to make a fork for it and I finally made a mandrel to try to bend the really heavy duty Nova disc fork blades. So I might finally get around to it.
I carried it up 9 flights of stairs a couple of times. That was when I really realized how heavy it is.
