Hot on the heels of Grizzly Cycles‘ beautiful Unit build last week, the Bakersfield, CA shop has gone and done it again. This time building a customer an exquisite, and possibly the first-ever 13-speed Libre? Yeah, that’s right 13, Josh’s Libre is sporting a Campagnolo 13-speed Ekar drivetrain! Lets dive in to the details!
According to Campagnolo, Ekar is the lightest gravel-specific groupset in the world, and this with a 9-42t 13-speed rear cassette! The rear derailleur and cranks are both made of carbon, and the level of attention to detail on this setup is second to none.
FSA K-Wing AGX carbon bars are wrapped in Cinelli’s Mike Giant velvet bar tape.
Braking is also a Campy affair, with the Ekar 95 gram calipers, keeping Josh’s speed in check. The wheels are Spinergy GXX carbon wheels shod with Rene Herse Hurricane Ridge tires.
