A UCI-approved aero road frameset for riders building a race bike their own way, with a disc-brake platform stiff enough for hard efforts and compliant enough not to beat you up on a long ride.
Overview
The Duro Evo DB is Gusto's flagship aero road platform, built around a patented carbon layup that combines Japan-sourced T1000 high-performance carbon fibre with INNEGRA, a high-modulus US damping material, and a latex-based absorption layer. The result is a frame GUSTO's own pro cycling team races on — rigid where power transfer matters, but engineered to filter road buzz through the layup rather than the rider's back.
The frameset ships disc-brake only (DB), with fully internal cable routing through an aero down-tube and wing-profile fork, an enlarged bottom bracket and reworked chainstay for efficient power delivery, and a bowed top tube at the cockpit specifically to soak up vibration on rough surfaces. It's built to take a full disc-brake groupset build, from Shimano 105 through Ultegra/Dura-Ace level components.
This is a frame for someone who wants to spec their own build rather than buy a fixed-spec bike — a serious club racer, a rider upgrading from an alloy race bike, or anyone assembling a personal race machine around parts they already own or want to choose themselves.
Why You'll Like It
Race-proven carbon layup
T1000 carbon fibre paired with GUSTO's patented INNEGRA/latex damping construction — the same platform used by GUSTO's professional team — gives you a frame that's genuinely raced, not just marketed as race-ready.
UCI-legal for competition
The frameset is UCI-approved for professional racing use, so it's eligible for sanctioned road races without any frame-legality questions.
Disc brakes, fully integrated
Cable and hose routing run fully internal through the frame and fork, keeping the front end clean and aerodynamic while running modern disc brakes.
Comfort built into the layup, not bolted on
The bowed top tube and the frame's damping construction are designed to take the edge off rough tarmac without resorting to elastomers or extra hardware that add weight.
Lifetime warranty on the frameset
GUSTO backs the Duro Evo DB frame with a lifetime warranty, which matters on a frame you're planning to build up and keep.
Who Is It For?
This frameset is for riders who already know what groupset, wheels and cockpit they want and would rather buy the frame on its own than pay for a fixed spec they'll partly replace anyway. It suits club and amateur racers who want a UCI-legal platform for sanctioned events, and riders stepping up from an alloy or lower-tier carbon race bike who want a genuine aero-race chassis to build around.
In India, where road surfaces vary block to block even within a city, the frame's built-in vibration damping is a real, practical benefit — you get race stiffness for climbs and sprints without every pothole and patch of broken tarmac being transmitted straight into your hands and back on longer weekend rides out of town.
Good to Know
Because routing is fully internal, plan your groupset choice (mechanical or Di2/AXS) before your local shop preps the frame, since hose and cable ports are sized for specific setups. Have your BOTS fitter confirm size using the Duro Evo DB size chart before ordering, since aero frames like this run a more aggressive fit than an endurance frame of the same nominal size. A professional build is worth it on a frame at this level — get it assembled by an experienced mechanic to keep the internal routing clean and the finish protected.
