Has anyone installed a rear bike rack on this bike? And if so have any recommendations for racks that fit well?
Be careful with all types of rear racks that are mounted on the rear triangle tubes, it's a risk that frame will fail. The best choice would be the Tailfin with Aerorack and all its additional accessories, but the prices are the highest on the market for such a complete solution. Another option is to adapt the Ortlieb QuickRack with a thru-axle adapter.

Here is a thread on Reddit on that topic: https://www.reddit.com/r/bikepacking/comments/12vd83l/modifying_topeaks_journey_trail_thru_axle_to_fit/?share_id=2rGWcNniPOsd78H8QVfCa&utm_content=2&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_source=share&utm_term=1

You can also find the dedicated ORTLIEB THRU AXLE adapter here, just released some time ago: https://www.rosebikes.pl/ortlieb-thru-axle-m6-connector-adapter-thru-axle-2726722?sf=1

I have an Ortlieb rack on my touring bike and am pretty happy with it, but I am also looking forward to buying the thru-axle adapter just in case I decide to use it with my G068 frame.

Cyclocross Frames, Wheels & Components / Re: New gravel frame for a tall rider (Could use help)

Hi guys! New here on Chinertown!

Me being a tall dutch guy, 1.96cm and inseam of 98cm. I need a larger frame then most folks. Which can be challenging when ordering from China. Is there any tall guys/girls out there that succeeded?

I ride 61cm road frames, I have a Factor Ostro VAM 61cm that suits me perfectly. A geometry like that is perfect, 409 reach, 611 stack, 73.3 head angle. And I have a 21'' mountainbike, which also is perfect for me.

Now I want a fast gravel frame for offroad riding, sand roads, light gravel, some trails in winter and some tarmac for winter training.

Does anyone have any recommendations?

My wishlist :
- T47 threaded bottom bracket
- Low chain stays
- Integrated cables or atleast hidden cables
- Clearance for 50mm tires
- 2x setup with 50/34 gearing (Running 11sp DI2)

I was looking at :
* Yoleo G21, a lot of handlebar options, T47, frame size available. Plenty of clearance, fits all my needs, only thing unsure of if seatpost can be high enough for my tall legs and alot of reviews saying its more a bikepacking bike. More oriented for endurance/feels somewhat sluggish.
* Carbonda CFR707, has size XXL option available, limited handlebar sizes, quite heavy, BSA 68mm BB, tire size and gearing is fine.

Is there anything else to consider? Alot of frames seem to go to max 58. Where I am pretty sure that's not gonna fit.

Which frame and setup did you end up with? Thanks.
