Has anyone received their 2014 Stumpjumper HT yet?

I'm curious to know whether any of you around 180 cm chose a different size than your last bike. I notice that the reach of the 2014-frame has increased for all sizes, while the seat tube is shorter.

Do anyone know the axle-to-crown length and the offset of the SID Brain fork (90 mm)?

I have a Stumpjumper Comp in Large (19"). I'm 192cm, my seatpost is right at minimum insert (400mm post). Reach is 1.5cm shorter than my previous (On-One ScandAl Large), but the stem is 2cm shorter, so i'm happy!

Switched my Reba for a Lefty, so offset and axle-to-crown is unknown for me...

My wife just got her 2014 S-works HT. Size small. It's actually shorter in the top tube compared to last year (by 5mm).

Be careful when comparing reach measurements... if the bikes have different stack, you can't compare reach directly.

The medium and up sizes are a bit bigger (good for me!).

I think the axle to crown is 505 for a 100mm SID, so it would be 495mm for one at 90mm. They use standard fork offset, which I beleive is listed on teh Specialized geometry charts.
