Hello
Im looking for endurance road bike aluminium frames.
Does somebody know where Adris, rose bikes (pro sl 105) or trek emonda Alr come from ?
Thanks a lot

Probably Merida they have a reputation for good quality aluminum frames like Specialized Allez

Would be careful with budget alloy frame, remember the Bowman Palace:R first iteration stunning alloy frame, then changed supplier,  frames were poor quality, lots of cracking welds, end of company.

The only alloy frames on Ali that look decent to me would be the Seaboards or the AM (Koozer?) frames. Everything else looks pretty sketchy.

I can vouch for Seaboard. I have a gr02 as a commuter and really love it! Overall build and finish is really, really good!

Same here! The paint was excellent and it went together without any issues. I built mine as a commuter as well but I've been having fun taking it on some of the easier gravel roads around here.


It looks like a way more expensive bike than it is.
