The idea is that the bike is oriented towards the utilitarian side of things. It's to test how I find merging previous bikes, hoping to find a sweet spot. Well see if it ends up as good as I hope or just meh. The idea is merging my Marin with a road bike. Frame and fork takes 45x700 and at least 55x650b.
Ordered a pair of 40x700c Gravel King slicks to begin with. I put them on my GFs Univega and really like them.
Waiting for the groupset to arrive. Went for GRX600 with an aditional XT rear brake, because the frame is specced for 180mm post mount for some reason.
Fork will be Bombtrack EXT v2.
Still waiting for the parts. Still havnt ordered bottom bracket, head set, bottle cages, handle bar tape and what not.
