u/Nearby-Bike-937

I am looking for my next gravel-bike for racing 🏁

Further down is the frames I have been researched but happy to get to know other.

These are my criteria;

- min 50 mm tires clearance

- UDH

- Fits min 46t (DUB WIDE)

- Reach 400mm+

- UCI-approved

- Steep seat tube angle and/or short setback. Want short distance from sadel to center BB.

My position is;

- Long reach

- Short sadel setback to the BB

193 cm and aggressive position in general

I have been looking at:

Tavelo Grow: slack seat tube but 0 mm setback will soon be launched and then I would max out the seat post rails.

SPCYCLE G028: no UCI-approved and not sure about the quality.

Mondince FM366 and FM346: no UCI-approved and slack seat tube.

Carbonspeed XMCS GRT: no UCI-approved.

Evolve CIMA CR: bit expensive and not launched yet.

Winspace G5 and G3: short reach and no UCI-approved (yet).

Elves Mori GTX: short reach and no UCI-approved.

Any other I am missing out on? 🚀

Just bought these Hunt carbon wheel but the rear seems uneven. It is both from side to side and up and down. It is especially up and down I am unsure about.

Would you recommend to get them more even or is this just acceptable?

My local bike mechanic told me that it was acceptable.

I can't seem to find any spokes that have more or less tension than others.

The crankset seems to be rolling without resistance. But the noise seems odd.

I am considering changing my position so I have a higher stack (8 mm), would you recommend me to go higher?

I feel comfortable when sitting in aero position but when just cruising (like the one in the photo) I find the stack to be too low.

Just had a photo taken from a race which is why I ask.
