^ Eh, that (almost) cross off Systemsix off my radar. The seatpost is way too stiff.
Hope the new Orbea Orca Aero 2022 would be around low 100-ish at the seatpost. Then despite the big weight penalty vs Systemsix, it could work out better.

The header are ordered a bit different than the chart on previous page but if you cross reference the data you can figure it out.

First Column is Headtube stiffness
Second is Fork stiffness
Third is BB stiffness
Fourth I am assuming is total frameset stiffness
Fifth is seatpost stiffness

I know, I have been wanting to upgrade from a Caledonia to an SL7 because the Caledonia hasn't felt stiff enough to me out of the saddle, but if these measurements are anything to go by, the SL7 is actually less stiff in the BB...

some numbers I have come across looking at Tour Magazine:


I always wonder why Treks are so bad at BB stiffness.

Any updates here since January 2022?
