Gravel, CX, Touring and All road bike thread

Hi all

 

I want to start a thread dedicated to Gravel, CX, Touring and All road bikes, and even MTB gravel conversions. A one stop place to post photos of bikes, project builds, diy solutions and basically anything related to the topic. 

 

So to start off the thread here is my latest build.

 

Specialized Sequioa Expert.

 

The reason I choose the Sequoia was because I got a really good deal on it. Wasn't my first choice, but it's really grown on me. 

 

Parts I used on the rebuild are as follows

 

- HED Belguim rims laced to Hope hubs

- Paul Sram adapter with a Sram 1x11 GX setup 

- 40t Sram series s 1x crankset 

- Cane creek compact brake levers

- Yokozuna Motoko brake calipers.

 

Now lets see yours....

Hey Dan

 

Great idea. If you aren't aware there's a long-standing, albeit dormant thread on a similar topic. Some great info on builds etc. It might be worth you trying to resurrect that thread to keep similar info in one thread? Just an idea?

(I think it often doesn't get picked up on searches because of the space between cyclo and cross?)

 

PS lovely clean looking Sequoia!
