I’ve been loving my gravel bike but am getting fed up with crap rim brakes and a stiff ali frame. In the spirit of ‘buy cheap buy twice’ (which I’m aware I’ve already done…) I’ve been looking at a Tripster ATR or a Sonder Camino Ti.

There are loads of Tripster reviews and the legendary thread here, but I’ve not read much about the Sonder.

Has anyone bought one who would care to share their thoughts?

Can’t comment on the Camino but have bought a number of frames direct from the Chinese factory that builds them and they’ve all been great. Don’t think the ATR is worth the 50% premium – you’re simply paying for the brand.

Thanks Dove – any chance of a link to the factory, if such a thing exists?
