700c? Soma Supple Vitesse. EL or SL.

Ed. is correct about the longer top tube/shorter stem combo trend on the Pinnacle.

Your numbers you listed are around what I was thinking for your height and inseam (arm length can be played around with a bit with stem length); at least 560mm stack / reach around 370mm+.
Going back to that Vitus, the stack height on that frame would be too low for you across the sizes.

If I were making the decision I'd look at other frames/bikes. The reach (386mm) on the smallest frame would be too long for you, not to mention the low stack height.

Stork Aerofast at 632/417 might do the trick.
However it does have that proprietary seatpost.
Seat tube angle is 73.5 compared to the 72.5 on your PX.

Need to get the frame geo right. What kind of stack and reach would you be looking at?

650b or a fat 26" should be the go at her height.

A little under 300km on Switch Back Hill extralights. A few gravel/singletrack 250kms on ThunderBurt liteskins. Both tubeless orangeseal endurance.

Yes they roll slower than a 700x35 for example. I'm just riding along looking around at things.

What guards are those?

Oval tops any good? Only one degree more sweep: Satori X-Race Aero if you ride a 42cm. The carbon option is a good price.

Compass tyres?

Read about this frameset recently, noticing the huge tyre clearance. Too bad its not in production anymore.

NS Rag+ ?

"I'm thinking slight flare and compact shape, not sure what yet":

Satori X-Race Aero in carbon, if you're a 42cm.

Bantam AllRoad frameset

Had no issues with RWS and carbon fork.
Pretty simple to tighten: I do up either ends until the non-ratcheting side just touches the dropout, then tighten up the ratcheting side.
You can turn that side pretty tight prior to locking the lever position. You'll know when its tight enough.

50cm Bokeh

Where do you find all these cool pics? Do you take them yourself?

Recently built up a Curve Grovel ti frameset to a lightweight gravel bike.

My carbon roadbike is taking a backseat.

Looks very much to me like the yellow Zona Grovel with a paint job and different fork.

Norco has recently come out with its XR (26/650b/700c options).

The Grovel is not supposed to be that heavy compared to some other steel adventure frames. Supposedly around 2kg for a 56? and another 500gm for the fork.

I have a 52 frameset arriving this week. Will weigh it.

Short reach, fairly tall stack, which is why I purchased one.
