Guru CR.301, a high-performance triathlon and time-trial (TT) bike known for its aggressive geometry and aerodynamic carbon fiber construction.

M/L frame

Guru was a Canadian boutique brand (based in Montreal) that specialized in highly adjustable and custom-fit carbon frames. The CR.301 was their "race-ready" entry, designed to offer high-end aero tech at a more accessible price point than their flagship custom models.

Core Specifications

  • Frame Material: High-modulus carbon fiber (T700 and T800 grade carbon composite).

  • Geometry: True triathlon-specific geometry with an aggressive seat tube angle (usually around 78°) to help save the runner's legs for the transition.

  • Cable Routing: Full internal routing for a clean, aerodynamic profile.

  • Bottom Bracket: BB30 standard (allows for a stiffer, lighter crankset interface).

  • Seatpost: Proprietary aero carbon seatpost with two clamp positions to adjust the effective seat tube angle.

  • Fork: Full carbon aero fork.

Common Component Builds

While the frame was the centrepiece, these were typically sold in the following configurations.

Component Specs

Drivetrain Shimano 105 (5800/7000), 10-speed.

Crankset 53/39T or 52/36T "Mid-Compact" for high-speed TT efforts.

BrakesDual-pivot rim brakes (Shimano 105).

CockpitProfile Design aerobars (T-series) with bar-end shifters.

Key Features

  • Flex Fit: Guru was famous for their fit-first philosophy. The CR.301 often utilised "Flex Fit" head tube extenders, allowing for significant height adjustment without sacrificing the bike's aero properties.

  • Di2 Compatibility: The frame is compatible with electronic shifting (Shimano Di2) if you ever wanted to upgrade from mechanical.
