Dear all, do you have some suggestions about a comfortable saddle for gravel riding?
I see some good reviews on ec90 saddles from aliexpress; all suggestions are welcome.

Dear all, i am looking some gravel frame from China, in order to build a companion bike for my mtb, to use during easier and longer trips.
I would like to stay on low budget project (gravel should be second choice compared to mtb).
At the moment I am considering two frame from Spcycle, G056 or G058, for good price, a lot of handlebar size and painting options; I also like the design of Carbonda cfr707, but I ask a quote and it is more expensive, so I have some questions.
- Is Carbonda better option for general quality (does it worth about 200 euro/dollars more also without the painting)?
- Is Spcycle a reliable seller?
- considering size M, for G056 and G058 the gemoetry are quite the same, but on G058 reach and top tube are shorter, does it mean more comfortable bike? Cfr707 has longer reach, tt and lower stack, is it more race oriented?
- I plan to use the gravel also for long mountain ride, on easy unpaved road with quite long climb, which geometry should be the best option? the one with longer chainstay?

If there are other good frames, felle free to suggest; only constrain is that I prefer bsa bb.
Thanks for any suggestion.

Hello, I am considering to build a low cost 1x11 gravel from open mold frame.
For the groupset I am looking for good offers on Shimnao grx shifter/lever, so I would like to ask if someone know the compatibility of any chinese rear derailleur 11speed with grx lever.
Thanks
