For the stem, and it's helpful for your first question on this thread, the geometry of the ATR have a long top tube and it have to match with a short stem. The idea is to have the stability and toe clearance of a slack…

The BB drop is from BB to axle, not related to tire. CX bike is around 65mm, road bike 70mm, touring bike 75mm. Depends the geo of the gravel but it's mostly between 70-75mm. 50mm is for track bike.
It's a very common misconception*: the cage length aren't related to the size of the cassette, it's just about how long the chain wrap can be. For a big cassette, the only thing that matter is the movement of the…
52,5mm BB drop ?
The head tube angle is an interesting question, if the gravel geometry isn't a copy of endurance / CX bike, we see some manufacturer get inspired by MTB geometry with a high trail (compensated by the stem lenght) with…
It's not all about esthetic (or a bike in particular, it's like this since the beginning of the thread). More lever on the fork steerer and right choice about geometry. More than 2cm of spacer just show a wrong bike…
It's a wrong title, this one will be better: "show me your spacers under your stem" 😉 But it's right, gravel bike is still a fuzzy market and maker don't make a lot of clever decision about geometry. Maybe a more…
Hello, On my gravel, one year ago, I was with 10s 1x 38 front 11-36 cassette: lacking at high end on flat road, every time on the second cog, bad chain line. Upgrade to 11s 10-42 cassette, still 38 front: better on the…
