π Introduction
The founder of Voicevelo (Ling Ying) is a successful Chinese XC rider, being the first Chinese rider to race the Cape Epic (on his own brand's mountain bike no less) so it's no surprise that their new gravel frame is A) Very racey, and B) More towards the MTB side of the spectrum.
The frame is just 790g in a size medium and can take upto 700x47c tires. There's a UDH mech hanger and a T47 bottom bracket keeping things "modern", while a kevlar reinforced steerer tube shows a dedication to safety.
In this video I go through who the brand are, what this frame is about, as well as going through the bike build I went for. It's a long one, so grab a drink and check it out.
