{"product_id":"exaero-gr-rdc-frameset","title":"ExAero GR RDC Frameset","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Seka Bikes ExAero GR RDC Frameset is a full-carbon gravel frameset built for riders who want genuine aero efficiency without sacrificing the versatility that gravel demands. At Rs. 3,29,900, it sits at the premium end of the Indian gravel market — and it earns that position through purposeful design, disc-brake-only architecture, and a construction philosophy aimed squarely at mixed-surface performance across everything from Pune's Deccan plateau to the winding descents around Coorg and Ooty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eOur Take\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIndia's gravel scene is growing fast, and the ExAero GR RDC arrives at exactly the right moment. The aero-tuned carbon frame handles the long, open stretches of Tamil Nadu and Rajasthan highways equally well as the punchy climbs above Lonavala. Disc brakes are non-negotiable on Indian roads where surface changes arrive without warning, and the RDC construction keeps weight in check without going fragile. This is a frameset that rewards ambitious riders who plan multi-day gravel adventures.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSizing for Indian Riders\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSeka Bikes follows a European sizing convention, which typically runs generous through the reach. Indian riders with a shorter torso-to-leg ratio should consider sizing down one step from their standard European size. In 35°C+ heat common across Delhi, Hyderabad, and Chennai, a slightly more upright fit reduces fatigue on long days — factor this into your stack-and-reach calculations before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe ExAero GR RDC is disc-brake only — flat-mount caliper standard. It is designed for gravel-specific groupsets across major drivetrain platforms. Verify your bottom bracket shell standard and thru-axle specifications with our team before building. Frame accepts standard gravel tyre clearances suitable for Indian mixed-surface terrain. Clean carbon surfaces with mild soap only; avoid petroleum-based solvents.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003ePairs Well With\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eComplete your build with a quality gravel groupset, wide-range cassette, and tubeless-ready gravel wheelset for India's varied surfaces. Add a carbon seatpost and ergonomic gravel-specific bar and stem combo. A reliable frame bag or bikepacking setup rounds out the ExAero GR for longer adventures through the Western Ghats or Leh.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/seka-bikes\"\u003eExplore the full Seka Bikes collection at Cobbled Climbs\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy from Cobbled Climbs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100% genuine — authorised Seka Bikes retailer in India\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree delivery on orders above Rs. 2,500\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCash on delivery available nationwide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e7-day easy returns\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShipped from Mumbai\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExpert advice — our team rides this gear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e.cc-faq{margin:32px 0 24px}.cc-faq__item{border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;margin:0}.cc-faq__item:last-of-type{border-bottom:1px solid #e5e5e5}.cc-faq__q{cursor:pointer;list-style:none;padding:24px 0;display:flex;justify-content:space-between;align-items:center;gap:24px;outline:none}.cc-faq__q::-webkit-details-marker{display:none}.cc-faq__q:focus-visible{outline:2px solid #000;outline-offset:-2px}.cc-faq__q::after{content:\"\";width:14px;height:14px;flex-shrink:0;background-image:url('data:image\/svg+xml;utf8,\u003csvg viewBox=\\\"0 0 14 14\\\" xmlns=\\\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\\\"\u003e\u003cpath d=\\\"M2 5l5 5 5-5\\\" stroke=\\\"%23000\\\" stroke-width=\\\"1.5\\\" fill=\\\"none\\\"\/\u003e\u003c\/svg\u003e');background-repeat:no-repeat;background-position:center;transition:transform .2s ease}.cc-faq__item[open] .cc-faq__q::after{transform:rotate(180deg)}.cc-faq__a{padding:0 0 28px;margin:0}\u003c\/style\u003e\u003csection class=\"cc-faq\" aria-label=\"Frequently Asked Questions\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdetails class=\"cc-faq__item\"\u003e\u003csummary class=\"cc-faq__q\"\u003eWhat is the Seka Bikes ExAero GR RDC best used for?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp class=\"cc-faq__a\"\u003eThe ExAero GR RDC is built for gravel riding — long mixed-surface routes, forest roads, and open highway stretches where aero efficiency and tyre clearance both matter.
