I guess my take on all that is that if you have to fiddle around that much - how 'modern' of a bike is it really?
Steeper seat angle needs more reach - and I wouldn't call the Slash long by any means - but with a 74 deg SA it has a bigger 'seat to bar measurement' than just it's reach would suggest.
But really - the Slash is a bike that's been around since 2017 (coming into it's third season now that the 2019 will ship at the end of this month). So maybe it is outdated.
