CBPXTEMV3FOR1700
Limo smooth, 4x4 capable titanium gravel superbike with lightweight single ring SRAM spec. Tempest is our flowingly fast and comfortably confident titanium gravel bike that gives you the freedom to ride wherever you want. Light yet tirelessly tough frame, powerful disc brakes, large volume tyres, tubeless ready wheels and a full bike packing fixture list. The only thing Tempest doesn't have is limits.
The triple butted 3AL/2.5V frameset comes from decades dialling the best possible performance from the ultimate adventure bike material. Lighter than steel, tougher than carbon with a responsively sprung ride that melts away the roughest surfaces and longest miles. Corrosion and scratch proof titanium with laser etched logos for lifetime good looks. Lively on the road but confident enough to play MTB on the trails. Full carbon gravel fork, hydraulic disc brakes and through axles give precise all surface control. 50mm tyre, dual bottle cage, mudguard and rack ready. Custom upgrades let you build your ultimate go beyond gravel bike for a crazy low cost.
Force 11 is SRAM's original high performance gravel groupset. Instant Double Tap sequential shifting of 11 super wide ratio, all terrain gears. Clutch controlled rear mech and Narrow Wide teeth secure the chain on the roughest tracks. Carbon levers, cranks and rear mech cage minimise weight. Extended lever hoods and hard biting hydraulic disc brakes mean outstanding all weather control. Full SRAM group - no cut corners.
You'll see Fulcrum Racing 900 Disc wheels on loads of our bikes because they just work really well. Light enough to flatter your legs, but tough enough to take a beating from potholes. Quality sealed bearings to laugh at whatever mileage and weather you throw at them. Easy to set up tubeless for a smoother, puncture proofed ride.Approx Weight (Medium) - 9.8kg - Bike weight can vary slightly depending on the size of the frame and the components chosen at the time of checkout
Pedals not included? Why not?
Pedal choice is a personal thing. Most higher end bikes are expected to be ridden with clipless pedals. These are matched to cleats on the underside of your cycling shoes. There are a few standards of these, and most cyclists tend to stick with one standard across all their bikes. So, you don't need to buy multiple pairs of shoes! Thats why Planet X dont sell bikes with pedals included. If you wish to add pedals to your order, simply select an option from the drop-down menu.
NOTE: Please make sure you check the size guide to order the correct size of this frame.

Build your bike in 3 simple steps
I bought the Tempest V3 a few weeks back and words can not describe how happy I am with my purchase. This frame is simply amazing and the components are top notch. I live in Sweden, so I assumed the delivery would be fairly slow, but it showed up in just a few days. The process was super smooth and professional. I opted for the Sram Force 1 groupset and the overall quality of the bike is just exquisite as was the build quality. You'll be hard pressed to find a better price for what you're getting, including bike and service. I'm amazed. I know for sure I will buy my next bike from Planet X.
