Is a real bear
#placeeholder
I have more than a set of handlebars ready to go, so I really need to get a PYR started!
They are scooping up the brown not the green! That sounds a bit weird typed up actually.I am not a real bear!
Anyway... Might as well take advantage.
No idea when the frame will arrive and the wheels don't even have any green.

That was just pointing out what I didn't want.They are scooping up the brown not the green! That sounds a bit weird typed up actually.
40mm. I reckon you could go wider if it was run 1x.What's max rear tyre width?
Refuse to watch his crap....That's a great looking bike. Just to be the Devil's Advocate...did you catch Hambini's dealings with Open Cycle.
He's an annoying character, but very smart and good at what he does...
Hambini sued by Open Cycle
Is it crap because of him or crap because of his analysis?Refuse to watch his crap....
Him and his previous history....Is it crap because of him or crap because of his analysis?
Good to know, haven't kept across it so all the better to understand the situation.Him and his previous history....
He was doxxed on weight weenies recently (before it was taken down). His claimed qualifications and previous employment are lies.
He's been called out for misogynistic behaviour by a female journalist.
And faking aero testing results.
In short, he is full of shit

The parts have been curated off my Trek checkpoint as I have retired the frame (4 years old).Very nice @bear the bear, missed this yesterday as I have been clicking on it for a few days just to see a frog.
That's a fair investment in Gravel right there. Right down to the saddle.
The only thing I would change would be 1 x drivetrain. GRX812 will take 42t cassette, I run a 30t single front on mine and can comfortably do 42kph, a 34t would probably be better but it works ok the way it is.
Awesome build !
It’s a lovely rig! Di2 is sweet as (I have had it for years on my roadie) but agree with @ozzybmx that single ring (38T for me) is the way to go for a gravel bike used in hilly terrain. If you’re using it for big road distances on slicks as well then the double may make sense.The parts have been curated off my Trek checkpoint as I have retired the frame (4 years old).
I bought the frame from Pushys when they had their 30% off sale in May and have just been waiting on various parts to arrive (bartape, seatpost, spacers, cassette, chain, bolts)
