Velobuild AERO GRAV Frame

[Unknownftp]

So now that it's been a bit of time and Ridley have just come out with the Kanzo Fast 2.0... would love to see Velobuild (Chris if you're listening please!!!) update their aero gravel frame to take it to the next level.
I would simply copy that Ridley geometry the same as done with the ASTR RS, up the BB drop to 80mm, head angle the same, seat angle a degree steeper, 425mm chainstays and 57-58mm tire clearance. No storage compartment. Keep it simple.

The head tube can be deepened a little, use the shapes at the back of the Kanzo Fast 2.0 as reference to get the tire clearance up (my Velobuild has no paint on the inside of the chainstays any more, I'm sure a lot of you are the same with 50mm tires...).

The current frame itself is very fast with road wheels and tires on - with Chung testing it matched my Supersix Evo gen 4, which is a pretty fast bike. Velobuild know what they're doing! My bike has had a lot of interest here in Cape Town as it's a bit different, especially with the Bikedoc 34cm bars.

Any photos you could share of road mode?

Attached the only pic I took - that's a 28mm tire on the front, it would look a bit better with 35mm+. I think the big gap around the fork is one of the reasons why it's so fast, a lot of 'breathing room' above the turbulent tire. [Caveat: I am stupid]
Bonus pic - the 2.35" G-One Speed in the front. Ran great for a race, but it truly sucked in crosswinds.
