2022 Giant Revolt Advanced

[wltz]

Has anyone personally installed a road size crankset on their pre 2025 Revolt? I'm talking at least 50/34 (37 if SRAM) or maybe larger crankset. I've seen the photo of Trekky, thanks for that link.

I'm using my Revolt for road duty at current, it's surprisingly good for solo rides at 48/31x 11-34, but in fast group rides I'm sometimes spinning out. I am using a SRAM wide Rival AXS FD.

TIA!

Running 50/34 on my 2021 Revolt, as it's basically on a permanent winter/turbo bike duty.

Cool, thanks. I take it that's the +2.5mm chainline and that's an all Shimano setup....are you running non Shimano chainrings on a GRX setup? Or normal road crank with BB spacers? Curious how you have this going.

Cheers!

Oh yeah, sorry, forgot to add! It’s a GRX 815 setup with Ultegra FD-R8050. There’s room for 52t if not 53t big ring. I’m using Rotor 3D+ chainset with Rotor 110bcd 5-arm rings, and change between 50t and 46t as needed. With 46t ring, the FD cage ends up sitting higher than ideal, but does the job.

Follow up, not really related question.... is the bottom plastic headset cover replaceable with a standard cone spacer?

I need a longer stem for road duties. I don't know whether I can easily get a 130mm Contact SL stem, and the current spacers have a contour that may not work with standard stems.

Edit, for some reason I don't have the option to add an image.

It will fit for the majority of stems you're encounter. As long as tightening bolts are located closer to the center, you should be fine

Any recommendations for a 3rd party derailleur hanger that is much stronger than the default? Silca doesnt sell a comptible one. I am using Ekar, which could use extr strength for better shifting.

Thanks, have you been able to compare it with the default? Wondering if clearly better.

Nope, just made a quick note for possible future needs.
