    Is this the Titanium or the Aluminium frame? Looking at the Ti at the moment

      Aluminium. The titanium is a decent bit lighter

    Congrats! Nice bike! What size did you pick up and what is your height? Comfortable? Do you have any toe overlap? As also looking at this bike. Cheers

      +Garik Garik I’m 6ft or 183cm. I choose a large frame. No toe overlap. Comfort is subjective I find. It’s a nice bike and I’m really enjoying it, but I’m going to get a proper bike fit before I start complaining or complementing the comfort. I went tubeless to begin with but it completely failed so I put the tubes in and it’s been solid since.
      Welcome to the channel though

      @@TheGrayExplorer thanks! Around 176-177cm, I guess the Large will be quite large for me. Then hopefully M should fit me well

    Can I ask what height you are and what size you went for? I’m 5’7 in between a small and medium

    • @TheGrayExplorer
      @TheGrayExplorer  2 года назад

      I’m 6ft and I went for the large frame however if you go to any alpkit branch they will let you sit on any of the frames in store. I know that because that’s exactly what I did with this when I had your worry

    What phone mount are you using?

    • @TheGrayExplorer
      @TheGrayExplorer  2 года назад

      It’s a mount I grabbed from decathlon. Not even sure it’s branded tbh. Just picked something from the shelf. Sorry I can’t help more
