Just got her put together and hoping to ride proper in the morning. I took her around the block so far seems like she may be a good ride. Can’t really complain with the sale they had. Shimano Slx drivetrain, 4 pot brakes, tubeless went super easy. And you just gotta love a chameleon paint job.

Hi everyone,
I’m currently deciding between two bikes and would appreciate feedback, especially from Polygon owners.
Polygon Strattos S7D (red) – 1599$
Polygon Strattos 7 2026 (black/gold) – 1799$
From what I understand:
S7D is under the “S Carbon” line (more aggressive/race-leaning geometry?)
Strattos 7 is part of the standard Strattos endurance line (more relaxed geometry?)
My riding style:
Mostly solo rides(sometimes group rides)
Distance: usually 40–100 km, planning to go longer
I like riding at a steady fast pace but not sprint-heavy
I want something I can use comfortably for the next 5 years
What I’m trying to decide:
Is the S7D too aggressive for long solo rides over time?
Does the Strattos 7 feel significantly more comfortable on longer rides?
Any regrets choosing one over the other after 1–2+ years?
Other notes:
Both have Shimano 105 12-speed, so I assume performance is similar
I’m okay upgrading wheels later if needed
Would really appreciate feedback from anyone who has ridden either (or both). Thanks!
Stock, this bike is great, but I a wanted to spice it up a bit, so i added some ICAN Aero 50 II wheels and some cheapo Chinese "AeroNova" carbon bars.
Every time I put a leg over this bike I'm happy as a clam!
Its fast, light and a dream to ride.
Polygon is new to my country and I am interested in their bikes. They have a 30 day lead time when you order one of the 2016 models. I noticed that each model only has one colour. Is this the way Polygon is with each bike model? Usually a company has 2-3 colours of each model. It just so happens that the model I like is not in a very enjoyable colour lol. Will more colours be released or is this the way it is?
