GR1ST for Michał

The concept for this project was straightforward: create a bike with a truly stealthy aesthetic. Featuring a „blackout" frame, blacked-out components, deep carbon wheels, wide tires, and a slammed stem, this bike means business. Paired with the latest GRX 1x groupset, it's built to tackle any challenge ahead. It's also impressive to see how well-balanced and proportional the xxl frame looks in this setup.
