Built with a trusty steel frameset, the Dame is strong, comfortable and fully capable of handling your next bikepacking trip.

"I don't know how a $3k gravel bike feels like, but it can't be 4 times better than this."
Awesome specs. But rack mounts are a bit off kilter (and asymmetrical), probably a QC problem. So i can't install nicer racks (tubus etc.) that use solid struts; I can only install the cheap racks where you can bend the struts.
I purchased the Primos Dame (medium) for my youngest daughter, who is 64” tall, and it is a perfect fit. She wished for a bike that she could ride that had dropped bars so she could race like her older brother, and the Dame was a great price point to fulfill this desire. She really looks great on the bike and the wide tires, quality stopping power, and easy 1x shifting all make for an enjoyable and confident experience for her.
As a bike, I find the Dame to be exceptionally well done. The ride is smooth, stable, and quick. I’ve thrown my legs over it for experience, and other than it being heavy, it really is a pleasure to pedal. For reference, I am an avid cyclist, 68” tall, and ride have the opportunity to ride a Moots Routt RSL (size 52) and a Colnago C68 (size 485).
The Dame is extremely smooth, efficient, and effective. My wife has used it for a few rides as well and thoroughly enjoyed her experience, which will result in another purchase - good news for the Primos Team to hear, I’m sure.
The size medium does have a little toe overlap, but it is manageable and frankly similar to my two bikes - it’s a factor to navigate with smaller frames in general.
For the price it is hard to beat. Set up was simple, quality excellent, and the smiles are wide when riding the Dame. Well done Primos.
Been looking for a quality gravel bike that doesn’t break the bank and I’m not sure it gets much better than Primos. I’m extremely happy with my purchase. Well done Primos!
The bike is awesome! Rides beautifully. Mine came with some chipped paint but should only be a cosmetic issue. Overall, very happy!
First off thanks to the Primos team for delivering a solid bike for an insanely affordable price. In a time of expensive carbon frames it’s rare to find an adventure bike outside of 2500 and beyond. The r&d really shines through. However some of the factory assembly and setup left a bit to be desired. My copy had a front brake that was not secured as well as a crooked star nut in the steerer. Lastly the rear derailleur was not setup correctly, ultimately sending the chain into the wheel. Luckily these are all repairable with a bit of know how. Aside from these mishaps the bike rides and handles amazingly. Love that it’s a through axle, and comes with great tires. If anyone were to ask me what bike they should get as a commuter, adventure, or hybrid I would recommend a DAME.
