Wait.. So it's cheaper to buy it with Shimano 105 12s and wheels, than getting just the frame set?

The frame is Zenith PLUME but only Zenith with the groupset.

BikerJens

Ah. Thank you guys.

So the Plume version is a bit lighter (and stiffer?)?

IKR?! I myself am confused, I will try to reach out to the store if the pricing that is shown is an error or what's really the dealio why the frame costs like an arm and a leg.

Bross just unveiled a new aero-all-rounder version of their Vagabond model

I think it's funny that this is their all-rounder because it would be a full on aero bike model for a lot of brands but because the Zenith has such beefy tube shapes this gets the sort of middle ground spot in their lineup.

Yeah it looks ok, but distrubution outside asia is probably gonna take at least until next year

I really like the looks of this one. I would ride it NGL ... Would just repaint the logo as it's ugly lol

The Bross zenith plume is pretty hilarious. Plume is feather in french. Yet... 1120-1140g (size M - metal parts incl.). That's 30g less than my LT268, also an aero bike, made w T800.
So, granted, the bross has tubes that are shaped more, but it's also several years younger than the LT.
So i would bet that the claimed T1100 carbon is really to sound cool. It's probably 95% T800 & 5% more.
Also, the narrowest bars are 40cm. Pretty ancient for an aero bike...
All that non sense for eur2.7k. Lol.

You can customize your handlebar and choose 380 mm.
But yes, I totally lost my interest in this frame.
