Title: Frames for women?
Post by: svanimpe on February 06, 2021, 07:26:32 AM
Any recommendations on carbon gravel frames that come in extra small women's sizes?

I'm looking for a disc brake frame with clearance for 35mm tyres, and a seat tube length of about 42-44cm.

Or maybe custom Titanium?

Bumping this up, looking for an XS gravel frame, something with a 490-500mm top tube. Any other suggestions.

Did you check the CFR-707 there is an XS size.

There is no notice about tire clearance being different for XS.
But ask to wing [ at ] carbonda.com for details if you want.

They don't have a published standover sadly!

Just ask Carbonda. They don't bite  ;)

Or of you don't get a response...here's a website in which you can compare frames with really close geometry to figure out what standover will be. It looks like Carbonda CFR-707 has the wrong standover number entered (50mm - haha) so don't go by that!:
https://www.bike-stats.de/en/search_for_geometry?typ=GB&oberrohrvon=515&oberrohrbis=535&sitzrohrvon=440&sitzrohrbis=460&reachvon=365&reachbis=385&stackvon=532&stackbis=552&federwegvon=-20&federwegbis=20&modelljahrvon=2021
...in the case of a CFR-707 size XS, I'm guessing about 710mm-720mm standover - a couple centimeters less if you use 650B wheels.
