Author Topic: Good alu gravel frame with high stack? (Read 14792 times)

I'm in the market for a new gravel/adventure frame. I would like one with a high stack/reach ration ( 1.55 or better ) and modern features like UDH, internal cable routing etc. I'd also like reasonable tire clearance - so up to 50c with no problem.
Thanks in advance.

I think the closest frame to what you describe is Shotwind Realzeal. I actually have one myself, and the geometry is pretty comfortable. The XL one has the ratio you want -- mine is the M size. And it has the modern features you mentioned. The tire clearance is up to 47c I believe.

These are the two alloy gravel framesets on AliExpress that somewhat meet your requirements:
