I discovered today that Waltly has entered the 32er market.  They state they have developed their own 32er carbon fork, and offer 32er wheelsets.

I made an inquiry, and hopefully they will quickly get back to me.

Here is the link.

The fork is a good idea. I may have been a factor in that.
The frame...it's long enough to be used as a hardtail. You may want to get it one or two sizes smaller, if building it with a drop bar?

Guys please check the lightcarbon catalog for 26-27. There's a 32 inch xc bike in it. LCFS932 Anyone else noticed it?

Well spotted! I'll enquire them about it soon...

decathlon/Van Rysel just revealed a 32er XC bike

Looks like the first affordable 32" carbon gravel frames are finally here!

I'm curious what you guys think about the geometry of the new Seraph/TanTan GR332, especially compared to the Avona Callis 32.

In size L, the GR332 has 629 mm stack, 430 mm reach, 455 mm chainstays and 52 mm fork offset. The Avona is at 598/398 mm, with 440 mm chainstays and 60 mm offset.

That's quite a difference, especially for a drop-bar bike.

I'm 189 cm tall and looking to build a fast, sporty 32" gravel bike rather than a drop-bar MTB.

Do you think the GR332 geometry makes sense for that, or is it more suited to relaxed off-road riding?
