    They are drastically different geometries though no?

    Is the former not more of an out and out race bike, wuth cracking groupset, wheels, saddle, and the latter is a more relaxed endurance geometry.

    Unless I am missing something.

    If it were me, and had previous, I would decide what kind of bike I was after, and or have a ride on both.
    Felt F70 05 (Turbo)
    Marin Palisades Trail 91 and 06
    Scott CR1 SL 12
    Cannondale Synapse Adventure 15 & 16 Di2
    Scott Foil 18

    Thanks. I am new to this, I think I want more of an endurance bike. Is the Btwin more of a racey geometery then?

    "The Ultra’s geometry is racy without being ultra-aggressive, with a medium model sporting a 148mm head-tube and a 548mm top-tube. The latter is near-horizontal, meaning some riders won’t have a lot of seatpost on show, but get the sizing right and you’re rewarded with a very capable and well-rounded ride, and an exciting one too — the Ultra rewards whether you’re heading uphill or down."

    "Rider Position / Bike Geometry
    Performance focused, but slightly more upright for comfort. Perfect for long days in the saddle and confident handling on all road surfaces."
