Cinelli KING ZYDECO Frameset|A full carbon gravel bike that unleashes speed and adventure
Sharp like a road bike, yet ready to hit the gravel. A fast gravel frame imbued with Cinelli's signature passion.
Among gravel bikes, the KING ZYDECO holds a somewhat special place. It's not just for leisurely touring with luggage; it firmly retains the "joy of riding fast." That feeling is this frame's greatest appeal.
Based on the nimble responsiveness inherited from cyclocross, it adds a deep capacity to maintain momentum even on rough terrain. The lightweight full carbon frame, weighing approximately 1000g, combined with a robust bottom bracket area design, achieves a high level of both acceleration and stability.
Furthermore, it is compatible with both 700C and 650B wheels, and the trail value can be adjusted by swapping fork ends. From a quick, race-oriented setup to a stable, touring-focused specification, it flexibly adapts to the rider's style.
And most importantly, there's Cinelli's distinctive bold graphics and aesthetic beauty. This frame doesn't just offer performance; it inspires the emotional desire to "ride this bike."

Among gravel bikes, this frame has a distinctly "performance-oriented" character.
The reaction the moment you push off is closer to a road bike, and the sense of momentum while cruising is remarkably light. Yet, it supports wider tires and 650B setups, providing a solid sense of security when venturing onto forest roads or rough terrain.
Furthermore, the ability to adjust handling by swapping fork ends is an interesting feature. It can be tuned for a quick, race-oriented feel or for the stability preferred for long rides, offering the freedom to "grow with your riding style."
And above all, this frame exudes strong passion at first sight. Cinelli's distinctive graphics and aesthetic presence make you want to "ride this bike" even more than its specifications alone.

The bottom bracket area achieves both clearance and rigidity, a unique advantage of carbon construction.
This vivid bike offers a refreshing contrast to the current abundance of earth-toned bikes.
