We have a a bit of a theme going on here with the Tupelo Shimano GRX Di2 builds, it is a very versatile groupset for road and gravel riding. Alan's bike has a Rotor chainset with 30/46 front chainrings which are a little easier than the standard GRX combination of 31/48. They are combined with an 11-34 cassette providing low gearing for climbs and the ability to remain in the larger chainring on the road on all but the steepest climbs.
The Handlebars, stem and seatpost are by Zipp selected from our build options and the wheels are own LANDRACE GRV carbon rims on Hopetech's Pro5 hubs laced with Sapim C-Xray spokes - hand built in London by Ed and Barna.
The titanium bottle cages are our new Landrace creations. This is a lovely balanced build and the feedback from Alan has been very positive on the ride quality and position. The flat pedals are used because Alan tore his Achiles tendon and had to have it replaced... so he doesn't like the idea of clipping in t his pedals at the moment!
