Gravel

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.

"80% road, 20% whatever": the unofficial motto of Warroad.

Salsa's own Class 5 VRS carbon fiber soaks up tiring high-frequency vibration, keeping the rider fresher for longer.

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.

Color: Midnight Purple Size: 52cm A gravel bike takes many forms, from lightweight racers to long-haul expedition machines. Many manufacturers build multi-surface bicycles, but the bikes from Gunnar are a special breed. Handcrafted from steel in Waterford, Wisconsin. The frame of the Hyper XF Disc is built with True Temper's OX Platinum chro-moly steel. This steel alloy offers a supple ride, while boasting light weight and outstanding durability. Up front, a 44mm head tube adds to the Hyper XF's handling precision, especially in technical terrain. Out back, the Hyper XF features flat-mount disc brake mounts that reduce overall bike weight and reduce caliper twisting for better brake performance. A 12mm rear thru-axle ensures excellent hub alignment and higher torsional rigidity. Rack mounts, fender mounts and bottle cage bosses add versatility to the Hyper XF. The fork is an all-carbon Whisky Parts Co. unit, keeping overall weight low while soaking up fatiguing vibration over rough terrain. The fork's flat-mount brake caliper installation and 12mm thru-axle dropouts keep the Hyper XF current. Gravel bikes need to be durable, performing under grueling conditions and dirty terrain. The Hyper XF's components reflect this approach as well, with SRAM's Rival 1 drivetrain doing power delivery duties. The alloy Rival 1 crankset is a single-ring setup, with a 42T X-Sync chainring. A Rival 1 shifter operates a Rival 1 rear derailleur, featuring a Roller Bearing Clutch for improved chain retention. A SRAM 11-42T cassette offers a wide gearing range for challenging terrain and heavy touring loads. Rolling stock consists of Shimano's WH-RS770 alloy/carbon fiber wheels, bringing very light weight and solid durability to the Hyper XF.

Welcome to a leader in multi-surface riding: Cannondale's Topstone Carbon 5. Cannondale takes innovation seriously. Not only is the Topstone Carbon's frame a featherweight masterpiece, it uses a simple but effective rear suspension geometry. 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.
