Kona Dream Builds X Unpacked: Adam's Ti Rove is Ready for Anything

Kona Dream Builds X Unpacked: Adam's Ti Rove is Ready for Anything

In Poland, Adam Wilkoszarski rides this Rove Ti as his daily gravel bike, commuting, training and disappearing onto local gravel whenever he can. This isn’t a show bike. It’s a working build, titanium where it counts, wide tyres for comfort and control, and parts chosen for durability, serviceability, and long days that turn into longer weeks.

Adam’s Ti Rove proves the point: the best builds aren’t locked to one purpose. Titanium heart, wide tyres, and a GT eGrade Current fork pulled from the e-gravel world for strength and long-haul comfort. 

Shimano GRX 600 shifting paired with a wide-range 11–46 cassette and a 40T chainring keeps things simple and dependable, low enough for loaded climbs, efficient enough for daily gravel miles.

650b wheels with proper tyre clearance turn the Rove Ti into a long-distance comfort machine. Mezcal up front for bite and confidence, Terreno Dry out back for speed where it counts. For stopping power, Adam has opted for Hope RX4+ calipers paired with Shimano rotors, which provide consistent braking power whether the bike’s empty or fully loaded.

Front: Vittoria Mezcal 27.5 x 2.1
Rear: Vittoria Terreno Dry 650 x 47c

A carbon gravel bar, Spur Cycyle bell, Chris King headset, and a 100mm UNO stem keep things comfortable without overthinking it. Built for hours, not highlights.

Titanium where it matters and a saddle designed for long days, because comfort is performance when the miles stack up.
