Gravel build advice?
« on: Today at 02:28:23 AM »
I am just about to start my first gravel bike build and have the following in my plan. What do you think, are these reasonable and would you change something here?

Frameset:
Ican Graro (EU warehouse)
https://icancycling.com/collections/carbon-frame-eu/products/graro-eu

- 828€
- 1560g

Computer mount:

- 10€
- 20g

All of this should come up to about 2724€ and 7206g.

Missing still is a chain (perhaps 250g and 40€?), bar tape (70g and 10€?) and the tire sealant (100g and 20€?).

Would you choose the same parts and if not, what would you change? Am I missing something obvious? My wish is to have the whole bike under 8kg and under 3000€.
