Re: Standert Bicycles (Berlin Brand) - Who Makes Them? Any Alternatives?

Looking good pearl!

I wanna see if the "steel is real" movement works for me. The problem is the more relaxed and endurance the geometry is, the more I know it won't get used much.

Not exactly saying the steel frame I'm looking for needs to be a full race-machine, but would nice if it was more aggressive than touring.

Mostly likely I'll land on a Standert Triebwerk Disc  8)

I would say this frame isn't too relaxed that its a slouch! It's nice to have options though. My other bikes are a CAAD4 for crits and a Exploro for gravel. this splits the difference.

I almost bought one second hand but was afraid that I wouldn't be able to fit the tires I want on it.

Re: Standert Bicycles (Berlin Brand) - Who Makes Them? Any Alternatives? I used to think the skinnier tires were faster on gravel, now im trying to slam the fattest tire I can on each of my frames, My 42mm Pathfinders are 44 on my Exploro and I wouldn't go any skinnier than that!

Getting by is one thing, but when its just as fast and more comfortable with a wider tire, it's a no brainer! I did a grave race this weekend and it was smooth, fast and flat. In the past I would have said I could have done it on 32s, but we did 22mph avg for the first 2:30... on 44mm wide tires!

Re: Velobuild VB-R-177 While that paint mishap sucks, I wouldn't fret about it. Once you put a bottle cage over it you'll be good to go.

Re: SES AR Road Handlebar from Aliexpress So I have about 8 hours between the two handlebars and so far so good. 7 of those hours were road miles (on my all road bike). Minus trying to get my hoods in the exact position I want them to and getting comfortable on them, they have been good.

I rode the ones on my gravel bike on my local MTB trail today for the first time and I was nervous, but they did not let me down either. At first I was concerned but about halfway through my ride I totally forgot about it.

Re: SES AR Road Handlebar from Aliexpress Did a 50 mile gravel race with these, filled with potholes and other big hits to them and they are still kicking. Big confidence booster.

Re: Tideace FM-CR060 New Mold Gravel Frame 700*47C Just want to come back and reply that Eddy has been very responsive to emails! Trying to research what I can do to run a regular bar/stem and use one of those FSA headsets to have the cables go through the frame...
