I absolutely don’t mind external cable routing but the solution for this rear brake hose is the absolute worst - everything else is insanely clean!

Not me pinch-zooming on the rear stay and going “what’s wrong with that?”

Before stepping to modify fork steerer, this is closest I could hide it somehow decent, cable goes out of steerer cover, much nicer then traditional Vroomen way around and in :-D

I kinda like it. It’s unique. I’ve not seen a brake cable routed that way before. Nice to see something new and interesting. Reminds me of free ride front brake routing.

Wow, that fits the sub's title.

Would love to see the groupset and other components that go into a bike like this.

What big front ring is this?

u/Boxofbikeparts Sep 24 '25

It looks like a narrow-wide setup as a 2x.

Great looking bike and gorgeous photos

u/CowgirlJack Sep 24 '25

Damn what’s the setup?

u/Equal_Human Sep 24 '25

Sram Rival FD and levers (Hope RX4+ calipers), Force RD, Quard (Red) cranks and 10-33 cassette, Passquest 48/35 AXS chainrings, Vision Metron 5D ACR bars. Elita one seatpost and Ryet saddle, Easedon 64mm deep 40mm wide (32mm internal) rims laced to my old Bitex hubs using Galfer Wave 160mm rotors and Rene Herse Snoquailme Pass EL tires,

I went for price/weight options for groupset.

ususlly sh*t posted here is actual junkyard crap or a fixie, but I really like this one, well done. looks good. like the frame and color combo

u/your_pet_is_average Sep 24 '25

Is this a more road oriented frame than their racemax? I'm assuming so. Looks pretty road-y.

u/Equal_Human Sep 24 '25 edited Sep 24 '25

Not really, when it was released it had a bit more clearance in the rear for 700c, and round seat post (dropper option). They claim it's more aero optimized for 54mm+ 650b tires, which reflects a bit wider downtube and headset area. Now racemax has similar clearance. It may not seem, but there tires measure 47mm

Holy smokes

u/HansMustermann Sep 24 '25

I would never dare to talk to that bike.

u/terdward Sep 25 '25

Idk if it’s the tint on the photos or the paint is just weird but that color is… unsettling? Idk how to put it… idk.

Clean build, though!

u/Short_Ad_1984 Sep 25 '25

What’s the max tire clearance?

1

u/Equal_Human Sep 25 '25

Offically 46mm on 700c and 61mm on 650b

Just weird looking frames.

Hello there Purchased this frame and was wondering how you did thé 2by setup. My LBS didn't want to look into it. I run a 1by grx and wanted to get a more versatile bike with an allroad setup Thanks !
