I'm about to order the Graro frame. But I'm still unsure with the stem/handlebar combination. I found this picture on the Ican website. Maybe someone can tell me, which stem is used here? For me it fits the frame perfectly.

Oh Wow! That is actually my bike! (Which is funny because I had no idea they used that photo, although I allowed them to use it) They photoshopped the wheels to look like theirs. The build uses wheels from Elite. Anyways... Back to the question: the stem is the "Ritchey Comp Switch" stem/stem-system. In combination with the "Ritchey Comp Cartridge headset topcover" - which is specifically designed to work with the stem.

Mine graro is also done. Havent ridden it yet but there are some things to speak About.

Pearl white colour - more Like yellow pearl but its fine .
Mechanic which i ordered to put it back together had to mill the rear axle cup because of frame build (wheel didnt want to fit easly)
I need to consider somę spacer for sprocket , its really narrow gap

Overall weight (with pedals) with sram spex axs, size 54 and Carbon wheels (Pirelli cinturato gravel m with too much milk in it) - 9,27kg

What size chainring (number of teeth) are you running?

The official max tire clearance is listed as 45mm. In your experience, is the actual clearance typically larger? Do you think a true 48mm tire could fit without issues? Also, do you happen to know how wide the downtube is - so it "replaces" a mudguard if its muddy ?

I fitted some 47mm Specialized tracer tyres which measured up as 47mm and there is room to spare

I'm also interested in purchasing this frame, but I have a few questions:
- Can I order an unpainted version of the frame?
- Can I use it steam + handlebar (Easton EC70 + Easton EA90 stem) instead of integrated cockpit?

I'm running 2.1" Thunder Burts on mine (51mm measured). There's obviously not much clearance - slightly less than 3mm - but it hasn't been a problem yet. I'm running 2x and had to swap the Ultegra FD for a GRX to get a bit more clearance.

IIRC, the downtube measures 50mm wide. However, i run the new Speedrocker XL 52mm clip-on mudguards. Very happy with them.
