looks nice, which handlebar is this one?

I would also be interested in what kind of handlebar it is. If it‘s the stock one, it has really a lot of reach! Looks like it would add 1-2 cm of stem length 😮

Hey Denny,

sounds like you should opt for a smaller frame size, since you have long legs and a relatively shorter torso. This means you are limited in top tube length, all the other stuff is extendable like stem, saddle height, etc.
So for the Velobuild it should be an S frame.
I really like this tool for comparison: https://www.bike-stats.de/en/geometrie_vergleich
There you can compare it to a bike you already own, or just compare frame by frame. You can even compare your "full" position by adding the handlebar dimensions and your seat hight, pretty cool!

Size recommendations: My height is 1,80m and inseam is 84cm. I thougt getting the M frame but my current bike has a similar geometry in the front and I would like to get a lil lower stack-wise. I have rather longer arms and maybe I can get away with S and a longer stem…

Any people here with the same issues?

Since the frame is pretty similar to the Ridley ASTR, they are also on the Ridley side of sizing. So it is usually a size down than other brands. I am riding a M Frame on my Ridley Helium, with 187 and 89 inseam and I will also order a M Velobuild frame. The frame has a very racy geometry for a gravel bike, with a pretty long reach, keep that in mind. There are some pretty good sites for comparing different frame sizes, like https://www.bike-stats.de/ they also have the Aero Grav listed. Hope that helps :-)
