Suggestion for a new frame
Rone69:
Hi to all,
I'd like your advice for a new carbon frame.
The features that interested me are:
- good construction quality
- good ride quality, I'm looking for an all-rounder with good climbing and descendig quality.
- tyres clearance up to 30mm or higher
- direct mount rim brakes
- seat tube angle 73° or 73.5° with standard seatpost
I appreciate any suggestion you would give me.
Thank you in advance.

Did you consider disc brakes ?
I know pure roadies have some conservative fear in them, but even the pro start to win big races with them ;)
And for descents it is a game changer, without even mentioning wet roads, fatter rims/tires, better modularity, etc.

Yes, I know the plus of the disc brakes, but if I have the option I prefer the direct mount, otherwise I will consider the disc brakes.
Anyway, which disc frame you can recommend?

If you are looking for an all rounder, I would try a gravel.
Allowing many types of tires 700c up to 40mm or 27" at 47mm.
It can ride everywhere and is sturdy.
The Carbonda 505 I ride, has the same geometry as my Canyon Ultimate road bike.
And equipped with a SRAM RED Etap HRD, and light carbon rims, it weights 7.1kg
Now if you look for a pure road bike, I can't help ;)

Thank you for the advice.
Coincidentally, the Ultimate CF SLX is the first one in the list of potentially my new frame.
