Can’t wait to see your impressions of this build. I’ve got a Ridley kanzo adventure. I’ve recently just fitted panaracer gravel king skr - line tlr 50 mm 700 c tyres . They have amazing grip in the dirt . Apart from coming off on a track tonight in the dark 😂 .. British 🇬🇧 weather isn’t the best. Keep up the inspiring work my good man !!
Thanks mate! I really enjoyed the Ridley Kanzo Fast when I reviewed it a few years ago. It was one of those bikes I didn't want to return. Have not had the opportunity to ride or review the Adventure variant, hopefully some day.
@ hopefully you get a chance to review the adventure variant . I’m looking at upgrading to the zipp wheels on this build. Very interested on your feedback about them .
@@markhutchinson9860 Will be posting a separate review of the Zipp wheels. While I haven't finished editing the build video, etc, I have several rides on the finished bike and wheels. Placebo at least, these wheels feel fast AF, especially with a ripping tailwind! Do remember, the tyre choices are currently limited to the Goodyear offerings. Hopefully see more tyres that are "approved" shortly.
I had to use Loctite 242 with my BBInfinite T47 BB on my Litespeed Watia because it kept loosening. Also happened with a Praxxis BB. BBInfinite and Litespeed both said that's part of the problem with the thread pitch of T47. After Loctite, I have thousands of miles with no issues. Thought you might want to ask your mechanic to do that. Cheers!
Probably about $13k based on how the frameset is optioned out with finishes and contact point accessories. - $3k group - $2k wheels -$6.3k (starting) for the Drifter Adventure That puts you at $11.3k with no sales tax, shipping, handlebars, saddle, and customization from No.22
@@softreset82 That sounds about right. Compare to big name bland bike vs this machine, I would take this bike every time. I consider myself very fortunate to review such amazing bikes!
Hello there, the Titanium bracelet is one of the few ever made by King Cage. If I recall, I purchased it years ago at one of the final Interbike shows in Las Vegas.
Teaser, loving SRAM Red XPLR 13 Speed thus far, have it on two bikes. More to come later, but I do agree to some extent. Shimano has definitely fallen behind with 1x gravel drivetrains.
Good point about Bathurst, clearly I have been living outside of Oz way too long! BTW, Scott McLaughlin, Bathurst 1000 winner, is now in Indycar, and doing great with about four wins under his belt.
WOW! Sick build! Love No. 22! 😎💯👍
Build video posting soon... hint, I have already ridden the bike, and... IT IS AMAZING.
Right on, JOM! Looking forward to seeing the completed build and hearing your impressions.
Bryce, holy crap, the build turned out better than expected. Teaser, easiest bike to build, such is the precision of your fine bikes!!!

Awesome build. Looking forward on your review of the 13 speed drivetrain. I have the t-Type on my XC bike, and Im very happy with it so far.

Hello there, thanks for the T47 tip!
You may use the acronym CSC for under the down tube bottle mount 😂😂
Haha, excellent idea.
@@GravelCyclist btw that also applies to any horse 💩 tloo🤔🤣😂
Over $6k, that's insane
I'll let you do the math figuring out the cost of this build...

Nah, it's cheap for the handcrafted product, in the USA no less. Move along peasant
@@GravelCyclist Oh absolutely. It's a bucket list bike for sure and given the stratospheric costs of halo bikes, I'd much rather give No22 my $$
What’s that fetching bracelet you’re flashin’ there? Titanium?

SRAM Red XLPR 13 speed group set is the pinnacle at this moment. Sadly Shimano has fallen way behind on MTB and gravel group sets.

Speak for yourself on the MTB stuff. The now old in the tooth Shimano 12s 1x MTB stuff is still the best mechanical MTB group out there.
Is it “stunning”? Are you stunned?
Decide for yourself. I'm not a stunned mullet.
Indy 500 arguably the greatest motorrace?? Must be a southern hemisphere thing because i think Bathurst 1000 is greater race.
