Hey guys,

Getting ready to jump into the gravel world and the Tantan GR201 frame looks like a great option.

I'm 195cm and trying to figure out the right size. Would the 58cm be the way to go for my height? Anyone else around this height on a GR201?

Also wondering about Tantan's own wheels. Thinking of grabbing them too, but I haven't really seen any reviews anywhere. Has anyone here tried them out? Worth it?

Coming from MTB, my first thought was a 1x setup. But for how I plan to use this bike – mostly road with the occasional gravel detour – I'm leaning more towards a 2x now.

The only way I'd probably stick with 1x is if I could run a big ring like 48t for road speed. But reading around here, it sounds like putting a 48t on the front with 1x might be an issue on this frame. Is that right?

Hard to say that it will fit, based on just your height. Have you tried comparing the frame with a bike that fits you well?

That would be the first thing, I would do.

Without knowing more I would say that 58 with 1,95 should be ok
