That Ai offset concept is something we covered in depth in our [SuperX SE review], but simply it aims to give more clearance between the chainrings and chainstay by moving the drivetrain outward by 6 mm. The rim then needs to be offset over the standard 142×12 mm hub to keep things centred. In theory, it’s not too different to Boost on mountain bikes, newer SRAM Wide, or Shimano GRX, but this method does mean you can’t simply switch disc brake road and gravel wheels between other bikes.
BOOOOOO.
Means a pretty big investment if you wanna run different wheels / tires…and since a lot of people want to use these bikes a “quiver killer”, this doesn’t seem great to me.
