\nHerv\u00e9 is one of our first customers, and we made him a very special titanium bike during the 23' 24' winter !<\/p>\n

He wanted to replace his road bike and continue doing mountain triathlons (Huez, Embrun in particular), and he needed a road bike. But he also wanted to go on bikepacking, touring, road and trail biking.<\/p>\n

Tout \u00e7a en seul v\u00e9lo ! Ca nous a un peu contrari\u00e9s. Herv\u00e9 a mis beaucoup d'\u00e9nergie dans le projet et \u00e7a nous a vraiment motiv\u00e9s. Et nous avons finalement cr\u00e9\u00e9 son v\u00e9lo \u00ab id\u00e9al \u00bb \u00e0 partir du Gravel Titane ON\/OFF<\/a>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

La g\u00e9om\u00e9trie est bas\u00e9e sur l'\u00e9tude posturale r\u00e9alis\u00e9e par Morphologics<\/a> dans le laboratoire de Bron, \u00e0 laquelle nous avons insuffl\u00e9 le comportement d'un v\u00e9lo de route en travaillant le choix des tubes, l'int\u00e9gration des gaines ainsi que les diff\u00e9rents angles et longueurs. Nous avons pris avec Herv\u00e9 le parti d'orienter le comportement du v\u00e9lo pour un usage route sportif, tout en lui permettant de supporter les longues distances avec chargement sur sentiers.<\/p>\n

The fork and frame wheel clearence limited to 40 mm tires, the initial tire mount is 30 mm, and the drivetrain is a SRAM Force Wide AXS 2x12, which remains a road group, but with a chain line that allows the use of wide tires. A real opportunity !<\/p>\n

Herv\u00e9 picked up his Obvious bike at the Saint Chamond workshop 10 days before the Corima Dr\u00f4me Proven\u00e7ale 2024 cyclosportive. Here's his first comment, sent the same evening :<\/p>\n

\u201cGreat feeling on the bike. Super comfortable. It's a treat to be able to do big relaunches, because even when I'm tired, the bike reacts well and erases my faults.<\/em><\/p>\n

During the climbs, I can keep up a good pace without needing to rise out of the saddle.<\/em><\/p>\n

I even set my personal record over 100 km !<\/em><\/p>\n

All in all, it's all good fun ! \"<\/em><\/p>\n

A bit of a \u201cnew bike\u201d effect ?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Since then, Herv\u00e9 has taken part in the Alpe d'Huez long-distance triathlon (2.2kms swim, 118kms\/D+3200m bike, 20kms\/D+340m run).<\/p>\n

His report can be found on Herv\u00e9's FB page : \u201cThanks to Obvious Cycles for this magnificent custom titanium bike, which I'm enjoying riding so much\u201d<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Au moment o\u00f9 nous \u00e9crivons ces lignes, Herv\u00e9 vient de terminer la Grande Travers\u00e9e des Alpes, la GTA. De Thonon \u00e0 Nice. Nous attendons avec impatience son r\u00e9cit ! En attendant, voici quelques photos qu'il nous envoie.<\/p>\n
