Description
The Chapter 2 Ao Gravel DISC Frameset is built for riders who want a serious gravel machine capable of handling varied terrain — from the broken tarmac of Pune's outskirts to the mixed-surface climbs above Coorg and Ooty. It offers a purposeful balance of stiffness and compliance, designed around modern disc-brake standards and gravel-specific geometry that rewards long days in the saddle.
Use Cases
Race day. Aerodynamic and stiff construction for competitive efforts.
Daily training. Comfort and reliability for repeat training rides.
All-road and gravel. Versatile geometry for road, gravel, and all-road exploration in India.
Our Take
Chapter 2's Ao Gravel is a frame that takes gravel riding seriously. Its geometry suits extended adventures — the kind of routes that mix Ghat climbs, village roads, and fast descents that Indian riding increasingly demands. The disc-brake platform is essential here: wet laterite roads, monsoon crossings near Lonavala or Khandala, and loose gravel reward confident stopping power. At Rs. 1,79,900, this is a frame you build around once and ride for years.
Sizing for Indian Riders
Chapter 2 uses reach and stack geometry that runs close to European averages. Indian riders with shorter torso-to-leg ratios should consult the geometry chart carefully — a smaller frame with a longer stem often suits better than sizing up. In 35°C+ heat, a slightly more upright gravel position reduces fatigue on long Deccan Plateau or Nilgiri routes. Professional bike fit is strongly recommended before ordering.
Compatibility Notes
Verify bottom bracket standard, headset dimensions, seatpost diameter, and flat-mount disc brake compatibility before specifying components. The Ao Gravel is designed for wider tyre clearance suited to gravel use — confirm exact clearance against your intended tyre width. Contact Cobbled Climbs' build team for groupset and wheel pairing guidance specific to this frame.
Pairs Well With
Complete your build with a quality gravel groupset, wide-range cassette, and tubeless-ready gravel wheelset. Add a flared drop handlebar for control on technical terrain, a comfortable gravel saddle for long days, and durable gravel tyres suited to Indian mixed surfaces.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Chapter 2 Ao Gravel DISC Frameset best used for?
The Ao Gravel is purpose-built for mixed-surface and gravel riding — think broken village roads, forest tracks, and the kind of long routes that mix tarmac and loose surface found around Coorg, Ooty, and the Western Ghats. The disc-brake platform and gravel geometry also make it a capable endurance road frame for riders who want versatility across Indian terrain.
What size Chapter 2 Ao Gravel frame should I order?
Use Chapter 2's published geometry chart and measure your inseam and height carefully. Indian riders with shorter torso proportions relative to leg length often fit better on a smaller frame with a longer stem. If you are between sizes, consider your intended riding style — size down for a more aggressive gravel position, size up for all-day comfort on long routes. Professional bike fit is strongly recommended.
Will the Chapter 2 Ao Gravel DISC hold up in Indian monsoon conditions and 35°C+ heat?
Yes — the disc-brake design is a significant advantage during monsoon riding, delivering consistent stopping power on wet laterite roads and during Ghat descents. Carbon frame construction is unaffected by heat expansion in the same way as metal. Ensure all components are installed with appropriate torque and checked periodically if the frame is regularly exposed to heavy rain and road grit.
How does the Chapter 2 Ao Gravel DISC compare to a dedicated road frameset?
The Ao Gravel offers wider tyre clearance, a more relaxed head angle, and a geometry suited to varied surfaces — priorities that differ from a race-oriented road frame. On smooth tarmac, a road frameset will feel more direct and efficient at speed. The Ao Gravel trades that narrow focus for capability across the mixed surfaces that make up the majority of interesting riding in India.
Is the Chapter 2 Ao Gravel DISC worth Rs. 1,79,900 in India, and what warranty applies?
At this price point, the Ao Gravel delivers premium carbon construction, gravel-specific design, and Chapter 2's race-informed engineering — a long-term platform for a high-quality build. Chapter 2's frame warranty terms apply per their published policy; Cobbled Climbs manages warranty claims directly with the manufacturer. Cash on delivery is available, and free delivery applies on orders above Rs. 2,500.
