The TIME ADHX 45 is TIME’s dedicated gravel frameset — smooth, stable, and built to be uncommonly durable, with the same BCS and RTM construction TIME uses across its carbon lineup. Officially specified for 700×32–45c gravel tires (and 650x50c), it adds a SRAM Universal Derailleur Hanger, 1x or 2x wide drivetrain compatibility, and geometry of its own: longer chainstays, a slacker, more stable stance, and more tire room than the standard ADHX. TIME stands behind the ADHX 45 with the same lifetime warranty it offers on its other frames.

Key Features

• Braided Carbon Structure (BCS): TIME braids dry fibers into complex bi-directional “socks,” choosing from 16 filaments to tailor the layup. Continuous, unbroken fibers can run the full length of a structure — something TIME says is almost unheard of compared with standard prepreg sheet construction.
• Resin Transfer Molding (RTM): Resin is injected under high pressure between rigid external and internal molds, pushing out air pockets and voids between layers for a uniform, high-tolerance composite structure.
• Dyneema®-enhanced carbon: TIME integrates Dyneema® into the ADHX 45’s BCS carbon layup to add impact resistance and durability in gravel conditions. Official Dyneema® fiber figures put it at 15x stronger than steel at the same weight.
• 45 mm gravel clearance: Officially specified for 700×32–45c gravel tires and 650x50c gravel tires. TIME notes that not all tire and rim combinations fit with adequate clearance.
• SRAM UDH dropout: The rear dropout uses a SRAM Universal Derailleur Hanger and is compatible with standard-mount and SRAM direct-mount rear derailleurs.
• 1x and 2x wide drivetrains: Officially compatible with electronic and standard (mechanical) systems, and with 1x or 2x wide front shifting. TIME includes a single-ring cover and drivetrain conversion kit.
• Integrated cockpit routing: The frameset includes an FSA headset and SRS top cap for semi- and fully-integrated cockpits.
• ADHX 45 geometry: This is not the same geometry as the standard ADHX. Official ADHX 45 figures include a 430 mm chainstay, 53 mm fork offset, and its own stack, reach, and wheelbase for a more stable gravel stance.
• Flat-mount disc brakes: Front and rear flat-mount discs with 140/160 mm rotors (with adapter), on 12×100 mm front and 12×142 mm rear hubs.
