Born on Mt Ekar, the 13-speed Campagnolo Ekar is not a conventional groupset.  Ekar is the world’s lightest gravel groupset: reliable, durable & fast.

The new Ekar GT groupset is an all-Italian gem, designed for ease of pedaling. The celebrated 13-speed cassette, the new ergonomics of the controls and the same rear derailleur housing all the cassettes brings high-end flavor to the gravel scene.

EKAR GT MECHANICAL GROUP: PURE RIDING PLEASURE FOR GRAVEL BIKES

The Ekar GT gravel groupset is a hybrid between an intuitively simple product and an Italian jewel. The new groupset brings high-end flavor to the gravel scene with dedicated Campagnolo components: the celebrated 13-speed cassette and four gearing options, now including the 10-48. The wider gear ratio makes pedalling effortless but scalable to your personal level. As you grow in experience, the Ekar GT groupset grows with you.

For Ekar GT, we have further improved the Campagnolo Ergopower control levers to make them even more comfortable on longer rides, while retaining the system’s pluses: its renowned precision and the maximum comfort ensured by the Vari-Cushion™ hoods. Differentiated levers mean you’ll never get a shift wrong, even in tough off-road conditions: Campagnolo’s tried and tested One-Lever-One-Action guarantees perfect control.

The Ekar GT Ergopower brake lever now has a greater reach adjustment range to fit your hand and finger size and meet the demands of your riding style. To further enhance control on gravel trails, the brake lever hoods now have additional texture to increase your grip, whatever the conditions. The lasered pattern is also resistant to wear and tear from sweat, dirt and detergent: a solution perfect for long rides.  The internal Ultra-Shift™ mechanism controls the 13-speed rear derailleur, letting the rider shift down by up to 3 sprockets in a single movement. Reliability of single downshifts is ideal for gravel rides on slippery, undulating and unpredictable terrain.

EKAR GT REAR DERAILLEUR

The Ekar GT rear derailleur has been designed using unrivalled Campagnolo experience and inventiveness, developed and perfected in over 90 years of innovation. 

The dedicated 1x system and 13 speeds make it effective, the 9-tooth sprocket allows for the birth of a complete range of gear ratios with short evenly spaced shifts and well-maintained cadence levels.

 Technology, design and material have been chosen to satisfy the specific performance needs of all-road and gravel fans, the combination of rapid precise, reliable, shifting together with high chain security, lightness, durability and strength mean it truly deserves its place in the all-road arena. 

The design of the rear derailleur with medium-length housing is compatible with the different sizes of the sprockets on all four of the cassette combination options, from 9-36 to 10-48, perfect for any gravel needs. The parallelogram’s 2D trajectory is designed specifically for the Ekar GT 1x system so that shifting entails precise mechanical movements for best use of the 13 sprockets. Its larger pulley wheels guarantee optimum working and high chain retention for security and peace of mind, whatever terrain you tackle. 

The clutch, permanently engaged for enhanced chain retention reliability and minimal operational noise, can be locked forward for easy wheel removal. There are more than 70 individual carefully designed and engineered parts in the Ekar GT rear derailleur alone. 

Carbon fiber-reinforced polyamide and anodized 7075 and 6082 alloys are skillfully combined in the Ekar GT rear derailleur’s body and cage, for the best blend of strength, durability and light weight, ensuring long-term reliable working and to withstand the knocks, sand and dust of hardcore gravel riding, while stainless steel bolts WITH SPECIAL SURFACE TREATMENT are used for strength and long-term resilience in the toughest conditions. 

EKAR GT CRANKSET

Single chainrings are obviously simple to use: no front derailleur, considerably less weight, fewer moving components that gather dirt and may cause blockages and better chain security with no useless overlapping chainrings – the perfect solution for gravel.

The two aluminum cranks are fitted with semi axles in AISI 630 steel, in line with the clever material combinations of the entire Ekar GT groupset, with a view to producing components that are always light but deliver maximum efficiency and durability.

New ProTech™ technology joins the two semi axles inside the bottom bracket, with a single sturdy screw. The oversize stainless steel bearing race is on the crank, fitted onto the semi axle for maximum smoothness and resistance – and to make it easy to access for inspection and maintenance without having to dismantle the cups.

There are five chainring options available:  36T, 38T, 40T, 42T, 44T. Their optimized design offers efficient transmission and maximum chain reliability.

The lightweight resistant chainrings in 7075 aluminum are easily interchangeable: simply unscrew them off the four arms of the crank with no need to dismantle the crankset. The four arms are arranged symmetrically for optimum load distribution and have a 104 mm bolt circle diameter. Changing the chainrings is a simple efficient way to change gear ratio while you tackle different kinds of terrain.

The Ekar GT crankset offers three crank length options – 170, 172.5 and 175 mm – to suit cyclists and bikes of all kinds. For some gravel bikes with low bottom brackets, the shorter cranks are used the most to avoid getting stuck on uneven unpredictable terrain.

A Q factor of 151 mm offers a comfortable efficient pedaling style, whatever your size.

EKAR GT 13 -SPEED SPROCKETS

The Ekar GT 13-speed cassette is available in four different options, from 9/36 to 10/48, which complete the range and reflect the different specializations on the gravel scene and each combination delivers very smooth gear ratio progression. Small jumps for the first 6 sprockets, which increase in the second half with the larger sprockets. This characteristic ensures an optimum experience on the saddle and helps you get the best from your performance on difficult routes and terrain. 

The wide selection of larger sprockets gives a more compact cassette for endurance events and longer gears for more adventurous riders. The cassette combinations are partnered with easy-to-replace dedicated chainrings to offer the widest range of gear ratios, smooth changing and maximum efficiency and, unlike the 2x systems, no waste. Two of the four combinations have a 9-tooth sprocket. In-depth comparative tests have shown that the 9-tooth sprocket is as efficient as any 10- or 11-tooth sprocket, without any additional friction thanks to its special profile tooth design, so that none of the power produced is lost.

Construction of the EKAR GT cassette retains the Campagnolo design philosophy with a single block for the larger sprockets, five individual sprockets with spacers in aluminum 7075 and an initial triple or quadruple: this construction gives the cassette optimum lightness and reactivity.  With appropriate rings and adaptors, the N3W freewheel body is compatible with all the 12-, 11- and 10-speed Campagnolo groupsets available today and in the future.

CALIPER EKAR

Delivering the advanced modulation and distinctive feedback feel that works so well on the road and even better when you take to the gravel.

EKAR GT C13 CHAIN

The new C13 chain is a vital element of the Ekar GT mechanical groupset; along with providing efficient transmission, in gravel riding the chain must work perfectly to help smooth quick shifting, always guaranteeing maximum security. It must also be strong and durable and the Ekar GT C13 chain delivers impressively on all fronts.  

The C13 chain partners effectively with the special profile tooth design of the Ekar GT 1x13-speed crankset chainring and sprockets for safe, efficient, smooth transmission. Despite its narrow profile, the C13 chain is very strong. Its C60 steel inner links with nickel-Teflon surface treatment resist the greater wear and tear they are subjected to on gravel trails. The entire chain, produced in the Campagnolo facility in Vicenza, undergoes a special lubrication process with an ultrasonic bath system that guarantees the special lubricant formula coats all the links evenly and thoroughly. The result is efficient working and high resilience, guaranteeing durability even in tough off-road conditions and requiring less maintenance.

The Ekar GT C13 chain comes with two fastening options: the classic Campagnolo pin or the new C-Link™ for even easier removal and cleaning. These two versions have been designed to deliver the versatility needed to meet the different requirements of any kind of gravel riding, worldwide. Whether you’re a pure gravel rider, take part in long-distance endurance races or choose to enjoy an all-road experience, both versions allow you to enjoy the same resistance and efficiency thanks to the use of the same materials and processes. 

CAMPAGNOLO ROTOR

Proven high braking performance. Progressive modulation and feel. 140 and 160mm steel rotors.

PRO-TECH™ BOTTOM BRACKET

It features the robust double-protection of Pro-Tech™ – a patented external sealing ring design protecting a strong, resilient fiberglass-charged polyamide central tube from the harmful ingress of water, mud and grit. The bottom bracket mates with the external stainless steel bearings – which are attached to the crank arms as an integral unit rather than the BB cups for greater size and easier maintenance access – and sits over a stiff, strong inner axle spindle, delivering performance that is smooth, fluid and predictably consistent from the get-go. Thanks to the Pro-Tech™ sealing system, it stays that way, however and wherever you ride. Ekar bottom bracket options offer broad compatibility in a full range of threaded and PressFit applications.

I’m absolutely OBSESSED!!!!!!
Format: Paperback
My love for this book is everything. Just thinking back to the little family—Ford, Cora, and Rosie—was absolutely amazing to read about. The way I completely fell in love with the lovesick billionaire, the grieving daughter, and a woman trying to find herself again was the best part of the book. I felt like each word drew me closer to the main characters. Ford is a billionaire who buys a run-down house in his old vacation town when, surprise, a quiet, guarded, incredibly smart twelve-year-old girl shows up on his doorstep claiming to be his daughter through a past sperm donation. Cora has lost her father, and her mother is struggling deeply, so Ford unexpectedly takes Cora under his wing. She’s sharp, sarcastic, emotionally reserved, and clearly carrying more weight than a kid her age should have to bear. Not long after, Rosie—Ford’s best friend’s little sister and his long-lost love—returns to town after being mistreated by her boss. Her arrival catches Ford completely off guard, and all the feelings he thought he’d buried come crashing back. Throughout the book, Rosie forms a deep, natural bond with Cora, and together they slowly build something that feels like home. Ford doesn’t just fall in love with Rosie—he falls in love with the family they create. Favorite Parts ★ Rosie’s bond with Cora was literally my breaking point. They are so incredibly sweet and felt completely real.

If you want to write that best seller correctly, this is the book for you!
Format: Paperback
Plot & Structure is a thorough handbook for writers looking to improve their storytelling. Bell, as many already know is a successful novelist and writing coach. He simplifies complex ideas like plot development and narrative structure into useful advice, practical tactics, and interesting activities that we can all understand. Bell's strategy revolves around the LOCK methodology, which stands for Lead, Objective, Confrontation, and Knockout. Not a new technique at all, this framework is intended to assist authors in crafting captivating story lines that hold readers' attention from start to finish. Bell clearly emphasizes the significance of developing a strong lead character who propels the story forward, a definite aim that guides the plot, a confrontation that adds tension and drama, and a knockout finish that leaves readers happy but wanting more. Clarity and order are two of the book's strongest points. Bell delivers his thoughts in a logical order, beginning with the basics of plot structure and progressing to more sophisticated themes such as subplots, pacing, and thematic depth. Each chapter is illustrated with examples from popular literature and cinema, making theoretical topics more concrete and understandable. This method not only enhances comprehension but also encourages readers to study and appreciate the workmanship behind their favorite stories. But Bell does this in a fun, and still factually correct manner. Bell's writing style is both informative and motivating. He communicates directly to the reader, anticipating their worries and queries and providing encouragement with his advice. His encouraging tone is especially helpful for aspiring authors who may be intimidated by the hurdles of narrative development, I know I was one of those. Bell tells them that, while creating a compelling plot is difficult, it is possible with perseverance, effort, and a willingness to learn from failures. The exercises at the end of each chapter are another standout feature of the book. These are intentionally created to put the concepts covered into practice, encouraging authors to explore various story scenarios, character motives, and narrative structures. By constantly promoting active participation, Bell guarantees that readers not only absorb the material but also apply it. This hands-on approach encourages creativity and experimentation, which are crucial skills for any writer trying to improve their art. He makes the whole process fun to do, which helps one feel involved more than some dreary instructional how-to book that we have all read and forgotten. Furthermore, Bell discusses frequent plotting difficulties and provides solutions to solve them. He addresses difficulties like predictable storylines, uninteresting characters, and drooping middles, offering practical advice on how to increase suspense, deepen character development, and sustain momentum throughout the novel. This problem-solving part of the book is crucial since it provides writers with skills for critically evaluating and improving their work. It dives into the psychological and emotional sides of narrative, recognizing that a successful plot is more than just what occurs, but how it affects the characters and, as a result, the readers. Bell urges writers to explore their characters' emotional journeys, claiming that emotional resonance is critical to producing a memorable and meaningful story. Despite its numerous qualities, the book might have used more diverse examples, such as those from genres outside of Bell's area of expertise, contemporary literature, and indie presses. While the emphasis is mostly on traditional narrative frameworks, some consideration of experimental and non-linear storytelling could have provided a more comprehensive perspective on the art of plotting. Its thorough examination of plot creation, along with practical exercises and insightful suggestions, makes it an invaluable resource for anybody wishing to master the craft of storytelling. Whether you're a new writer struggling with your first plot or an experienced author looking to improve your skills, this book provides the assistance and inspiration you need to create captivating narratives that keep readers engaged from beginning to end. Plus, you will have fun along the way too!

One of the best books about writing!
Format: Paperback
Each chapter offered valuable information. I can't praise it enough. It's simply one of the best books that I have read about writing. I have learned plenty, and I will apply it to my new novel that I'm working on right now! Buy it! Read it! It works wonders! It's invaluable to my collection. If you're building your collection, make sure this book finds a place in your home. I have outlined so much. I have taken so many notes. I memorized elements of the structure. The author didn't take any break. He didn't stop surprising me toward the end. Great work! OVERVIEW The author talks about the LOCK system for your novel. L --You need to have a gripping Lead with whom readers can identify with. You need sympathy, likability, and inner conflict. You need to build an arc of your character breaking into his layers, so the lead changes by the end of the novel. You need to show it through action and show the moment of change. O-- Objective, a goal your lead wants to achieve. You need to create a strong opposition, and put that opposition close to the lead. It might be a physical location, moral duty, professional obligation, life or death situation, obsession, etc. C--Confrontation or simply said conflict that grows; stakes are raised higher leading to the climax of the story. K--Knockout--final fight against opposition You need three ACT structure: Beginning (Act 1) , Middle(Act 2), Ending (Act 3) Beginnings- You need to reveal the lead; hook the reader; create sympathy through those things that I have mentioned earlier. You need to create disturbance in his life that will move the Lead to Act 2 which is the middle, no return. Middles- Raise the stakes; scenes are more tense; create more conflict and have a death hanging over your Lead (emotional death, physical, or professional, etc.) The customer is nearing the black moment. The Lead enters another door of no return. Endings-Battle--tie those lose endings (some might contain sacrifice) 1. A final choice or 2. A final battle Add a twist if possible. If you follow the above and create a back cover blurb, you can go ahead and write your novel knowing it will not fail. Create an arc of the character that concentrates on the internal part of the character. I like to create also two charts. One is for the Lead showing how the character is changing internally. Another one, characters who play the parts in your novel divided into following categories: Character, Description, Objective, Role, Secret, and Emotion Evoked. You can add as much as you want in your never ending list. Scenes- HIP- Hook, Keep it Intense, Prompt to another scene Stretch tension! You need show instead of tell. ARM- Action, Reaction, and More Action Soap Opera-- don't resolve anything until the end, and you might want to end the scene with a secret revealed or a cliff hanging moment. Complex Plots--Play with symbols or motifs; create subplots and integrate them into the main plot, or use parallel plots used so much in romance novels. Or divide into sections; each section to contain the LOCK system and three act structure. Some other things that I found valuable: Flashbacks -- keep them short; create scenes out of them; use one HAD. If your middle doesn't play well, do something unexpected like throwing a guy with a gun. Unanticipate-- avoid cliches, create unpredictiable scenes, endings If you present something in the story, make sure you use it later in your novel. If you mention the riffle on the wall, make sure it will play out in the future scene. You need to work backwards. You need to plant things, so the future scenes will make sense. The author talked about SHUTDOWN. I have experienced it myself just after the conference. It happens when the writer is overwhelmed and can't produce. It's a phase that passes. I did have it for two weeks. I was just simply exhausted and overwhelmed. I took a break, and the passion came back.

Pretty Good... Not amazing.... But pretty good.
Format: Paperback
Before taking a stab at my first real story I have decided to read two books on the art of writing fiction; "Techniques of the Selling Writer" by Dwight Swain, and the book I am reviewing now, "Plot and Structure" by James Bell. While Swain's book was more of an all inclusive manual on writing interesting fiction, Bell's book is focused strictly on, as the name suggests, plot and structure. What this book is not... This is not a 'how to write a novel' book; if you are going to just read one book on writing a fiction novel then "Techniques of the Selling Writer" may be the more appropriate choice. If you are looking for a book that deals with anything outside of plot and structure, this book will be of no help there either. This book is designed to be supplemental to an already moderately educated reader. If you read Swain's book first, then you will instantly recognize the principles of this book. What this book is... This is a great book on, you guessed it, Plot and Structure. It's actually a fairly concentrated look into the subject. The chapters... Ch 1: What's a plot, anyway? Ch 2: Structure: What holds your plot together. Ch 3: How to explode with plot ideas. Ch 4: Beginning strong. Ch 5: Middles. Ch 6: Endings. Ch 7: Scenes. Ch 8: Complex Plots. Ch 9: The character arc in plot. Ch 10: Plotting Systems. Ch 11: Revising your plot. Ch 12: Plot Patterns. Ch 13: Common plot problems and cures. Ch 14: Tips and Tools for plot and structure. I found the specificity of this book very helpful with each principle being illustrated by a paragraph or so of a known author's work. Bell handpicks excerpts from authors varying from Dean Koontz to Herman Melville, brilliantly pulling text from these masters and showing us how they went about the relevant technique. This easy to read nature and well outlined subject matter means I will be using several of its chapters as a personal reference guide in the future. I'm certain it will keep me from making many of the mistakes beginning writers make and possibly save me weeks in rewrites. I will say this though... "Techniques of the Selling Writer" is a better book and covers plot quite well too; so if you are only going to read one book on writing, that is a damn good place to start. If you want to supplement that reading further, "Plot and Structure" comes highly recommended. [...]

Have no fear!, or The writer's Victorinox.
Format: Kindle
You can't praise this book enough. There are a ton of how-to books out there, but this one really made a difference for me. Think of writing as a journey through the woods: You set up, you get in the muddle, and you come out (hopefully) on the other side. When doing this, we try to use as many tools and resources as we can to make it to the other side, but most of the time you fail (or tools fail on you) and you end up starving or being eaten by some wild animal in the muddle of the story. What James Scott Bell wants you to have in clear is that the most useful tool you can have out there is YOU. And all of his tips, advice and excercises are aimed to one thing and one thing only: how to unleash and harness the power of your story (and survive). It provides clear, straight-forward tools and tips, adressing many aspects of the writing process you won't find in many of them. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the study of plots and storytelling. Relevant examples that take in consideration a wide array of writer profiles, and Bell does not abuse with film examples (and most of the movies it references are also books i.e.: the maltesse falcon, the godfather, etc.). It contains useful excercises at the end of each chapter to help you put the tehcniques in practice and bring the best out of your learning experience. It really helped me overcome several issues I had with my novel-writing and opened my mind to a new scope on plot and str.. This is a wonderful book, written in the same gripping style that the author suggests to use, and with great success. I think this is a wonderful book because it does not give infalible advice. To me that is very important. Let me ilustrate how I felt by giving you the following example: (after developing content) -Regular book: so just do This (and fail, miserably). -Bell's book: Many writers had this problem before and by doing This you might also find a solution for it. In case That doesn't work, you could maybe try This, or come back at it again later on with a fresh view and give it another try.
