Hi,
I have looked around for 5 to 6 months now to get a carbon gravel frame out of China.
First I had a order on the GR039 from Miraclebike, but they could not get the package out of the country. So then I ordered the same model from Honsenbikes, but he took my money on paypal and was never heard of again (still trying to get it back).
So now I am back on square one...
A user on the weightweenies forum said that the GR039 is not ideal in terms of geometry as it only has a 56mm BB drop.
The pros of GR039
- fully integrated cable routing through stem and handlebar
- good looking
- very lightweight
But I am ready to reconsider for a more race-specific frame.
A dream is to find something similar with fully integrated cable routing
3K Matte.
I understand this is too much to ask, so just give me examples of frames that have 27.2mm seatpost, 12x100/142mm thru axles and that is lightweight with a modern geometry
Price does not matter, 500 bucks, 1000 bucks, its not important.
It will be a SRAM "mullet" build, a mix of XX1 eagle AXS and Sram Etap RED axs with a single chain ring 44t.
Kind regards
Sebastian
