Choose and Spec A C&V Gravel Bike

Gravel bikes are, it seems, the hot trend right now.

Suppose you want a no compromise gravel bike, but it has to all be C&V.

You can mix up groups, put MTB kit on a randonneur frame, road components on a touring frame, whatever.

The end result has to be as good and durable a performer as a modern high buck gravel bike - with a teeny weight allowance.

More importantly, it has to look like it came from Colango or Bianchi or whereever that way - a production or maybe factory custom bike. Not a Frankenstein kitbash.

Recipe?
