Time ADHX 45 Race Gravel Build

The idea behind this build was to create a gravel racing machine that mimics the rider's road bike position without compromising off-road characteristics.

We picked the Time ADHX 45 "Dune" frameset in size Medium to allow for a low stack and compact steering geometry. A 140 mm Enve stem had to be installed in order to compensate for the shorter reach as well as a narrow 38 cm compact Enve handlebar. A blacked-out zero-offset seatpost from Ritchey was used to work with the rather shallow seat tube angle of the frame.

The bike was equipped with a Sram Red AXS groupset, coupled with Rival AXS shifters and a 44T single chainring from Wolf Tooth Components. Wheels are from Scope with their all-road R4A model, mounted with 40 mm Tufo Thundero tyres, ideal for fast gravel and all-road conditions. Finishing kit is from King Cage with titanium bottle cages and Fizik with a trusty Antares Ti saddle, for a lightweight yet more rubust solution.

Complete build comes at 7.9 kg as pictured.
