Cyclocross Frames, Wheels & Components / Gravel Fork 40mm Tyre
« on: November 21, 2025, 01:16:45 PM »
Hi there,

I need a fork for a Ti Frame. I know it´s really specific, but maybe knows something.

- Tyre clearance 40-45mm (not above)
- Thin/Slim appearance
- No mounts
- only internal routing, no hole on the crown

Something like the Enve fork but with no hole. cheaper and lighter than the enve would also be great.

For now I only found a Toseek fork, which I am going to buy, if I can´t find anything else.

what about 650b wheels on this frame? is there more clearance?

3
At least one buyer did mention, that he got it with headset and other spare parts.

I doubt the weight a bit. Crux DSW Size 56 for the set is around 2kg.


5
Weight: Frame approximately 1.53kg, Fork approximately 0.43kg

thanks, I asked them.

Are there any buildthreads/ -pictures yet?

7
Whats the weight for the frameset? Couldn’t find the info

8
I wanted to point out, that these numbers are crazy. It´s way too agressiv in the bigger sizes. Looks really good though

9
What are these stack and reach numbers on the mori? Makes all racebikes look relaxed.

Hi there,

I am looking for a cockpit-solution for my Aethos. The obvious choice is the Alpinist (real or fake) but I want an aero-shaped one.

There are some builds with the  Roval Rapid cockpit and some custom spacer vom Magcad. I do like this solution but the the cockpit is way to expensive. I know there are a lot of knock-offs but I am not sure if the spacers from magcad will fit. Anyone know if it is a 1:1 copy?

Other options are appreciated. The cockpits that look good are the one that aren’t bulky around the steerer tube. Maybe a black inc copy? But couldn’t find any.

Cheers

The first one needs a wedge aswell. But it should fit with it.

But then you could buy only the wedge and use any stem or stem/handlebar combo.

Be aware, they say measurements are from outside to outside.

That's very unfortunate to hear, I guess you're very unlucky. Seems like not all owners run into the same issues like you did. As far on my judgement of the frame, no issues so far. Fingers crossed that I won't run into trouble and need to deal with them once after putting some milage on it. I'm building up the frame as we speak.

Hope everything is fine. I had two issues: Headsetplay (top), after complaining they told me I had the wrong centering ring (don´t know if this is the right word for it). They sent me a new one, but it was exactly the same one.
Second issue was the tight clearance between fork und frame. Adapter they sent me didn´t work and I´ve bought a different bearing, which doesn´t fit lengthwise (49 instead of 49,5mm) but builds a little bit higher.

Can anyone sent a photo of the "centering ring"? I bought a cervelo one, but haven´t tried it yet.

Regards,
Jim

such a shame, its quite a unique frame as far as chiners go. Do you have your eye on an alternative? I'm very keen on the aggressive geo

Not really, bought myself an Aethos. Will be enough for some light gravel.

You are pretty limited because of the d-shape steering tube. You might be able to use a normal stem with a wedge. Ridley produces them, couldn’t find any on ali.

Im selling my frame now, I can get this thing to work but I am pretty pissed because all of the problems and the bad communication from the seller.

Wouldn’t risk to buy one of there are so many issues with it.
