Moots has been building bicycles since 1981. Yes, they've been refining their bikes for decades. When it comes to gravel and adventure machines, Moots has been leading the way from their home base in Steamboat Springs, CO.. The ROUTT 45 is a workhorse machine that’s aimed for adventure and versatility. From tackling fast-paced road rides to multi-day bike-packing outings on backwoods trails, the ROUTT 45 is ready. Gravel racing is already baked into the ROUTT 45's, adding confidence with every unpaved mile. MOOTS uses domestically-sourced seamless titanium, bringing legendary durability, a unique ride quality and very light weight to the ROUTT 45. Shortened stays give the bike excellent pedaling response for climbing as well as cornering agility, while retaining the stable handling and comfort of the original Routt. An oversized 44mm head tube enhances handling with a stiffer front end. Optimized for 700 x 40-50mm tires, with a maximum tire size of 700 x 50mm, the ROUTT 45 can even tackle singletrack with the right rubber. Clearance is still good with compact double chain rings, or up to 42 tooth clearance with one-by drivetrains. Cable and hose routing along the frame are external for easy servicing in the field. The proprietary rear flat-mount disc brake installation is 3D printed from 6/4 titanium, effectively anchoring the rear brake caliper for excellent brake response and more even pad wear. Our in-stock ROUTT 45 sports a 3rd water bottle location as stock, so you can go further between watering holes. A carbon fiber Moots fork helps keep overall weight low while also soaking up vibration. 12mm thru-axles add handling precision, while a tapered steerer tube allow the use of standard threadless stems for easy fit adjustment. Flat-mount disc brake installation reduces weight further, and also allows for even brake pad wear. Our in-stock example is equipped with Shimano's 11-speed Ultegra components, including the dual-control levers, 50/34T alloy compact crankset, disc brake calipers and rotors, front derailleur and clutch-equipped Ultegra RX long-cage rear derailleur. An 11-34T Shimano HG800 cassette boasts a massive gearing range for tackling challenging terrain. Rolling stock consists of Bontrager's tubeless-ready carbon fiber Aeolus Pro 3 wheels and knobby tubeless-ready 700x40c GR1 tires. Light wheels and wide tires with low-profile tread make for easy speed, on or off pavement. A Moots titanium Cinch seatpost adds to the ROUTT 45's ride quality and feel, while a Fizik Gobi saddle offers a comfortable perch for day-long rides. A carbon fiber ENVE road handlebar soaks up fatiguing vibration, keeping the rider's hands happy over rough and choppy surfaces.

"80% road, 20% whatever": the unofficial motto of Warroad. With experience drawn from challenging for gravel racing's biggest events, Salsa has been refining their carbon fiber "recipe" to make their best endurance road bike nothing short of brilliant. Boasting very high torsional strength while keeping a smooth ride quality, the Warroad Force AXS is ready for hilly "challenge" rides, audax events and hardpan gravel. Salsa's own Class 5 VRS carbon fiber soaks up tiring high-frequency vibration, keeping the rider fresher for longer. Endurance road geometry positions you for long-haul comfort, and extra frame and fork mounts help keep you supplied for all-day rides. Compatibility with both 700c and 650b wheels make this a versatile machine ready for wherever you ride. To top it all off, SRAM’s Force AXS group feels like the future of shifting, fitting for a bike that just might hint at the future of road riding.

Everyone knows a lighter bike does everything better. From relentless climbs to just pulling away from stop signs, there's less effort and energy used by the rider. Gravel and adventure bikes benefit from lower weight, making hilly adventures more fun. When Liv used their proprietary Advanced-grade Composite carbon fiber to build the Devote Advanced Pro, they created their best women's gravel bike so far. The Devote Advanced Pro is a clean-sheet-of-paper design, using precise carbon fiber layups to combine lightness, high torsional strength and an exceptional ride quality. A tapered OverDrive head tube/steerer tube interface improves handling precision, especially in high-speed turns and descents. The overall fit is more upright than a road racing bike, producing a comfortable posture for day-long adventures. Clever details abound on the Devote Advanced Pro: -Bottle mounts on the fork blades as well as the frame, offering greater accessory installation options -A top tube "tank bag" mount for a clean, strap-free bag installation -Room for tires up to 45mm wide -A durable guard on the downtube that deflects "roost" off the front wheel -Internal brake hose routing keeps the Devote looking clean and sleek -Smart mount rear rack installation The components chosen for the Devote Advanced Pro are SRAM's brilliant 12-speed Force eTap AXS group. Wireless shifting on a bike built for off-road environments is nothing short of brilliant, eliminating shifter cables and housing that dusty (or muddy) surfaces regularly consume. SRAM's wireless shifting is truly lightning-quick, even under hard pedaling loads. This completely eliminates distractions regarding shifting technique. Removing the batteries from each derailleur for recharging is simple and tool-free. 500 miles between recharges is common, depending on frequency of front shifts. Charge level is displayed on simple LED lights on each derailleur, or with the free SRAM AXS smartphone app. The Force crankset is a 43/30T combination, delivering low, hill-climbing gearing. The Devote Advanced Pro's cassette is a 12-speed Force XG-1270 10-36T unit, providing a massive greeting range for tackling fearsome terrain. The dual-control levers boast an adjustable lever reach and contact point adjustment, allowing riders with shorter fingers a safer, more confident stop. Textured lever hoods and shift buttons improve the already-intuitive shifting operation. SRAM's hydraulic Force brake calipers bring excellent stopping power to every ride in all conditions, rain or shine. You'd think Liv would need to spec some pretty boring wheels on the Devote Advanced Pro after that. Instead, they added their own CXR-2 Carbon Disc WheelSystem. Yes, that's a tubeless carbon fiber wheelset. A wide 25mm inner profile lets any given tire produce a wider "footprint", enhancing traction and reducing rolling resistance. Tubeless 700x40mm Maxxis Velocita all-road tires bring bags of grip to every mile, along with exceptionally low rolling resistance. Even the "furniture" of the Devote Advanced Pro was carefully selected to deliver higher performance on rough terrain. A women's Liv Alacra SL saddle sits atop a Composite carbon fiber D-Fuse SLR seatpost. The D-shaped seatpost flexes backward under hard hits, reducing the shock of pavement transitions and railway crossings. That same D-Fuse technology is featured in the handlebars as well. A Contact SLR XR D-Fuse unit also soaks up impacts more effectively than garden-variety alloy bars. An alloy Contact stem completes this incredible expedition-ready machine. A SRAM AXS battery charger is included with the purchase of this bicycle.

Called Kingpin, the rear triangle is designed and engineered to flex vertically, while resisting torsional twisting. The clever LockR Pivot in the seat tube anchors the left and right sides. 30mm of rear suspension travel allows the Kingpin Carbon 5 to clamber over especially rough surfaces, broken pavement and railway crossings with ease. The rest of the TopStone Carbon 5's frame has specific carbon fiber layups that enhance rigidity, especially under hard pedaling loads. The shaped seat tube also plays a part in soaking up fatiguing vibration and impacts. Internal cable routing keeps the bike looking clean and sleek. There's room for tires up to 40mm wide if off-road adventures need meatier rubber. Want to add 650B wheels and tires? The Topstone Carbon 5 will accept 650x48c tires. The overall geometry of the Topstone Carbon models is stable and more upright, allowing a wider range of riders -and rider flexibilities- to get comfortable. Equipping the Topstone Carbon 5 required components dedicated to off-road adventures. Shimano's 11-speed GRX components are found throughout the Topstone Carbon 5, including the dual-control levers, derailleurs and hydraulic disc brakes. The GRX levers feature a textured hood and brake lever, ensuring a comfortable grip when attacking technical trails. The rear Shimano GRX derailleur boasts an adjustable clutch that prevents dropped chains and greasy fingers. Hydraulic Shimano GRX disc brakes are effective in all conditions, rain or shine (or mud). Cannondale's alloy 46/30T crankset is paired with a Shimano 11-34T cassette, bringing a massive gearing range for tackling roller-coaster terrain.

A sense of adventure requires the right bike to help you follow your ambitions. Be it racing or just exploring, the Crockett 7 exceeds expectations.

Cyclocross bikes used to be afterthoughts in the minds of leading bike manufacturers, but that has changed drastically in the last few years. The Crockett 7 is a classic example of how seriously Trek takes this no-longer-obscure end of the sport. Refined geometry, light weight, a smooth ride and innovative design make the Crockett 7 a true standout. Trek's refined cyclocross geometry really shines on twisty courses, but the Stranglehold thru-axle rear dropouts can adjust the wheelbase fore-aft as much as 15mm, improving stability on rough surfaces. Increased tire clearance can be tweaked with a few tools and a few minutes of work. Trek's own 300 Series Alpha aluminum is used to build the Crockett 7, ensuring light weight and quality control at every step. The aluminum has been shaped and hydroformed to provide excellent power transfer, giving the rider confidence on start lines and steep ascents. The now-familiar tapered head tube adds an extra dash of handling precision during high-speed turns and descents. A press-fit BB86.5 bottom bracket anchors the crankset for flex-free power delivery, especially on steep ascents. The Crockett 7's top tube has been flattened for comfortable shouldering and improved ride quality. 'Cross courses are rough and muddy on purpose, and your bike needs to be survivable in that stuff. The mud clearance on the Crockett 7 is generous to say the least, and can accept up to 38mm tires front and rear. Trek's clever Control Freak internal cable routing keeps shifter cables clean and tidy, while an adjustable 3S chain keeper helps prevent frustrating chain drops. Up front, a carbon fiber IsoSpeed fork with a 12mm thru-axle dropout helps keep overall weight low while soaking up fatiguing vibration.

Shifting components on a cyclocross bike experience brutal conditions, and SRAM's Force 1 components are ready for the challenge. A single-ring drivetrain makes total sense in cyclocross racing, helping to reduce overall bike weight further while ensuring reliability, especially on race day. SRAM's 11-speed dual-control Force 1 levers and a medium-cage Force 1 rear derailleur shift the chain across an 11-32T SRAM cassette with a refined feel. An alloy Praxis Alba crankset and direct-mount 40T narrow-wide chainring does power delivery duties.

The Crockett 7's tubeless-ready alloy wheelset is designed for messy, muddy adventures. Bontrager supplies the Paradigm wheelset with a 19.5mm width for a better tire contact patch. 700x32c Bontrager CX3 Team Issue tires bring bags of grip to the Crockett 7, making short work of dirty, muddy and technical courses. Reigning in speed is the job of SRAM's Force hydraulic disc brakes, bringing excellent lever feedback and long service life in all conditions, wet or dry. Flat mount disc brake caliper installation reduces weight and promotes even pad wear as well. A Ti-railed Bontrager Montrose Elite saddle is an excellent component choice compared to ultralight carbon-railed saddles, especially when it comes to durability. Even the best riders make "close-up course inspections"... A 2-bolt Bontrager carbon fiber seatpost also brings race-day durability to the Crockett 7. An accessory-ready alloy Bontrager Pro Blendr stem and alloy Bontrager IsoSpeed VR-CF road handlebar complete this race-ready machine.

The Revolt Advanced 2 is a new from the ground up gravel/adventure machine that caught the eye of many last year. Now there are a few upgrades...

Giant's Revolt Advanced 2 is designed with geometry unique to the model. Predictable handling was a priority with the Revolt Advanced 2, giving the rider confidence when the riding surface changes for the worse. The bottom bracket position keeps the rider's center of gravity low, allowing the rider to feel "in the bike" and between the wheels, rather than just perched on top. A more upright fit was needed for riders that are more interested in simply completing challenging rides and events rather than winning them. But just to make sure it was race-ready, the Revolt Advanced was thrown into the hardest gravel race out there: The Dirty Kanza 200. Giant Factory rider Josh Berry made the podium on one in 2018!

The frame and fork of the Revolt Advanced 2 is built with Giant's own Advanced-grade Composite carbon fiber, ensuring feather-lightness and impressive torsional strength. The Advanced-grade carbon fiber "recipe" soaks up tiring vibration, allowing a rider to cover longer distances in comfort. A tapered OverDrive head tube/steerer tube enhances the bike's handling precision, especially in fast turns and descents. The chainstays have an almost droopy look to them, allowing very wide tires to be used (up to 45mm!) when tackling terrible gravel. 12mm thru-axles not only ensure proper disc brake alignment when installing wheels, but also improve overall torsional strength for improved handling. A press-fit PowerCore bottom bracket anchors the Praxis crankset, providing flex-free power delivery with every pedal stroke. Internal cable routing keeps the bike looking clean and sleek as well as extending shifter cable life in dirty conditions. Even the front disc brake hose runs inside the fork leg. The usual bottle cage mounts are found in the main triangle, but a third bottle mount is found under the down tube for especially long and hot rides. Cool, huh? Giant's clever D-Fuse Composite carbon fiber seatpost soaks up hard impacts with up to 12mm of flex, enhancing ride quality further.

Shimano's excellent 11-speed 105 components are found throughout the drivetrain of the Revolt Advanced 2. The adjustable-reach 105 levers feature an improved hood shape and texture, keeping the rider's hands fresher over broken jeep double-track. The new long-cage 105 rear derailleur is a Shadow-style unit, enhancing shifting performance under load. It even has a 34T large cog capacity. The 105 front derailleur is a new toggle-pivot unit, reducing the effort needed to shift to the large chainring. Cable tension can even be adjusted from the derailleur, eliminating the need for in-line barrel adjusters. Praxis supplies the alloy Alba crankset with a 48/32T chainring combination, bringing incredibly low gearing to the Revolt Advanced 2. Out back, a Shimano 105 rear cassette boasts an 11-34T gearing range. Yes, that's less than a one-to-one ratio for attacking the crazy-steep climbs while loaded down with gear!

Giant's own S-X2 Disc alloy wheels are tubeless-ready and are wrapped with tubeless 700x38c CrossCut AT1 tires that dig into dirt with aggressive tread. Helping to keep speed in check is a pair of Shimano 105 hydraulic disc brakes that work brilliantly in all conditions, rain or shine (or mud). A Giant Contact saddle sits atop the aformentioned D-Fuse seatpost, while an alloy Connect stem and alloy Contact XR D-Fuse road handlebar completes the cockpit of this gravel challenger.

With nimble handling and very low weight, the Crockett 5 Disc will impress on the 'cross course or on the road!

The Crockett 5 Disc was built with cyclocross racing in mind. That being said, all of the Crockett models serve any rider well if they're looking for a spring training bike, lightweight commuter, or "low-intensity gravel" bike. The Crockett 5 Disc is the most affordable machine of the series, built around a hydroformed 300 Series Alpha aluminum frame and all-carbon fork. The frame's tubes have been hydroformed, keeping weight low and torsional strength high. The top tube is flattened, making for easier shouldering on muddy run-ups. Control Freak internal cable routing keeps the Crockett 5 Disc looking clean as well as protecting the rear derailleur cable from dirt and water. A tapered head tube anchors the large down tube effectively, adding an extra level of handling precision during high-speed corners and descents. The BB86.5 press-fit bottom bracket ensures flex-free power delivery with every pedal stroke; a critical attribute when charging uphill towards the finish line. Out back, the Crockett 5 Disc is equipped with an adjustable Stranglhold 12mm thru-axle rear dropout. 15mm of fore-aft adjustability lets the rider tweak the Crockett 5's wheelbase for improved mud clearance or a more nimble feel. Want to switch to single-speed? The Stranglehold dropout is perfect for adjusting chain tension. The 12mm thru-axle also enhances the strength of the bike's rear triangle, reducing lateral flex in the frame. The Crockett 5's IsoSpeed Cross fork is not only light (due to being a fully carbon fiber build from steerer to dropouts), but also soaks up fatiguing vibration. Flat-mount disc brake caliper installation on the frame and fork helps reduce overall frameset weight, but also enhances brake lever feedback and improves pad wear. A 12mm thru-axle at the fork dropouts adds an extra layer of handling precision.

The Crockett 5 Disc needed a drivetrain that could put up with muddy conditions while still getting the job done. Enter SRAM's Rival 1 components.

SRAM's single-ring Rival 1 dual-control levers and rear derailleur make for a lightweight, low maintenance drivetrain. 11-speed shifting across an 11-32T SRAM cassette is done with a single "DoubleTap" button on the right Rival 1 lever. A single 40T chainring is mounted on an alloy Praxis Alba crankset, offering low rotating weight and excellent torsional strength when putting the power down. A set of tubeless-ready alloy Bontrager Affinity Disc wheels are wrapped with race-ready 700x32c Bontrager CX3 Team Issue tires, bringing boatloads of traction on loose surfaces, gravel and mud.

TRP's cable-operated Spyre disc brakes help with speed control in all conditions, wet or dry. Bontrager also supplies the Montrose Comp saddle, durable alloy 2-bolt seatpost, accessory-ready alloy Elite Blendr stem and alloy VR-C road handlebar.

With all this going for it, the Crockett 5 Disc is more than ready for the mud and dirt. Are you?
