A RELIABLE AND HIGH PERFORMANCE CARBON FRAME
Excitement guaranteed by the carbon frame of this gravel bike: fast, precise, it ensures comfortable steering and helps you improve your speed. Designed for electric groupsets, only the brake cable housings run through the inside of this UCI-certified frame. Its tube cross-sections have been optimised for better lateral rigidity... but it doesn't sacrifice flexibility, which you need for absorbing the terrain!

A CARBON FORK FOR EFFECTIVE STABILITY
Essential to your comfort, the carbon fork contributes significantly to the playfulness of this gravel bike and ensures extremely precise steering. Since the carbon improves with the stiffness and the flexibility of the front of the bike, this fork provides good stability for your rides and combines fun, performance, and reliability.

VERSATILE HUTCHINSON TOUAREG TYRES
We chose to equip our carbon gravel bike with Hutchinson Touareg 700 x 40 mm tyres for their versatility and flexibility. Originally installed tubeless, you'll need to add the sealant provided with the bike yourself. The even, grippy design of this tyre excels on dry ground, but is not recommended on very wet terrain.
The sidewalls are reinforced to help the tyre withstand impacts and stones.

TUBELESS ASSEMBLY FOR GREATER RELIABILITY AND PUNCTURE RESISTANCE
The wheels are set up as tubeless, but come WITHOUT SEALANT!
You'll need to add the sealant directly into the valve, after deflating the tyre and removing the valve cap. Note that the bottle of sealant provided with the bike is enough for both tyres (60 ml of product per tyre). To finish, fully tighten the valve cap and reinflate the tyres to the desired pressure, between 1.8 and 3 bars maximum.

MAXIMUM CLEARANCE FOR TYRES

HYDRAULIC DISC BRAKES
This carbon gravel bike comes with SRAM Force hydraulic brakes. We chose this system because the braking power provided by the hydraulic disc brakes allows you to perfectly control your bike and adds steering comfort in all conditions. No need to force your brakes to slow down: braking is smooth, progressive, and precise!

Our carbon gravel bike is equipped with an oversize aluminium ERGO handlebar with a 16° flare, meaning the angle between the vertical part and the side of the handlebars. For a size S, the handlebar width will be 400 mm, for a size M/L, 420 mm, and for a size XL, 440 mm.
For our carbon gravel bike, we opted for an oversize ERGO aluminium stem. Here is the stem sizing in detail:
● S: 80 mm
● M: 90 mm
● L: 100 mm
● XL: 110mm

Saddle and seat post
Our carbon gravel bike is fitted with the Fizik Argo Terra X5 saddle. This ergonomic saddle provides comfort and stability, while limiting pressure points and absorbing vibrations during rides.
The seat post is aluminium and has a diameter of 27.2 mm. For size S/M, the seat post is 350 mm long, and for size L/XL, it is 400 mm long.

SRAM SHIFTERS AND DERAILLEUR BATTERY
The derailleur battery and SRAM charger are provided with the bike. SRAM says that the battery will last about 20-40 hours (500-1000km) and we recommend that you fully charge it before using your carbon gravel bike for the first time.
We recommend recharging it at least once a month.
The shifter batteries are directly integrated by SRAM and synchronized with the derailleur during assembly, so you don't have to do anything.

BIKE QUALITY ASSURANCE
Quality is in our DNA!
Each bike is fully assembled on a stand by the same person at our B'Twin Village plant in Lille, France.
Each person is committed to ensuring the quality of every bike they assemble.
For example, each screw is tightened with a connected torque wrench that provides very detailed quality monitoring (recommended and actual tightening torque, who does it and when). You will have access to these data from the first quarter of 2023.
