820 g frame with 50 mm tire clearance

One of the closest practical lightweight aero choices with 50C clearance, but its 425 mm stays and longer wheelbase are race-gravel geometry rather than literal road geometry.

The displayed Est. ¥19,433 estimate adds the adjustable ¥6,000 build allowance to the latest frame price. Best suited to early adopter, weight-focused racer.

Key hardware: T1100/T800/M40-claimed frame; 820 g frame weight; tire clearance 50 mm.
