Perhaps a bit of a long shot but has anybody gone from a Tallboy 3 to a Tallboy 4 and stayed with the same size (despite the slightly different geometry)? I'm currently comfortable on a Tallboy 3 XL. And am right on the cusp of L and XL for Tallboy 4 (being 6'1). The TB4 XL is 20mm longer but at the moment my saddle is pushed right back so that's 20mm to gain right there. And I can always change stem, trim bars etc. The TB4 L is actually shorter than my current bike (and I wouldn't want my TB3 any shorter). Has anybody made this exact swap!?

I'm 6ft2 and bought a L CC Tallboy 4, I'm currently selling it because its too small.

Thanks. I've always preferred SC Xls so I think I'll stick with that size. Does the front wheel wander when climbing?
