This is a cheap bike geared towards people with not a lot of money to spend on their first gravel bike. I bought it to use as a commuter, as I already have a Trek Checkpoint. Here in Brazil bikes in general are absurdly expensive given most people's income so bikes produced locally with Brazilian steel and cheap components such as shimano Claris or Sora are quite popular. The AL fork is a generic fork that can be acquired cheap. I think Cernunnos now offers a carbon fork upgrade but that wasn't available when I bought the bike. My bike is different from the stock build because I had some parts in my parts bin that were better then the stock ones.
