Dame

100% worth it

Absolutely LOVE this bike!! Amazing customer service as well. Id originally placed an order for the metal olive; but due to logistical issues wouldnt recieve it for a month. Reached out to see about switching colors for quicker shipping; primos team said heck yeah and got me a metal coral dame out the next day!! Small issues with the shipper damaging rhe box—-once again primos stepped up and sent me a replacement derailleur hanger immediately. Took it for the first shakedown last week and it ate up the gravel. Need to fine tune the shifting on my end still, but so far can not recommend enoigh.

It's a great value. Very good tire clearance. I mounted a 2.2 Race King rear and 2.4 Dubnital front tire. The valve stem holes were not large enough though. They caused the tubeless stems to not go down in the hole and the rubber seal bunched up and leaked. I tried 2 types of stems. I had to drill the valve hole slightly and then they sealed properly with 35mm tape. I do wish they would have kept the top tube bag mounts and the crankset with 3 bolt compatible chain ring. Those changes were 2 steps backwards. It's geared too high for hilly terrain, and you can only drop from a 40 to a 38 with the crankset they changed it to. I had to buy a SRAM crankset and bottom bracket so I could put on a 32 tooth 3mm offset ring. The chain line was also very biased to the outer rings so this allowed me to center the chain line with the center of the cassette as it should be. The bars were also way below my seat. I got a large but although I'm only 5'10" I have a 34.5" inseam making the bars too low. I tried a 70mm 35 degree stem but still low, so ended up with a 95mm Truvativ adjustable stem set at 65 degrees to get my saddle and seat even. All in all it's a very good value, and I'm really glad they gave it the clearance to run MTB tires. It just needs a few adjustments to get things right. Being a beginner gravel bike, a higher stem would be better, as would much lower gearing. I wish they would not have changed the crankset. The old crankset was much easier to get proper gearing or even run an oval chain ring. But still, it is a very good value and great platform to build on.
