Overview
100% performance. 100% adventure.
The new Gr4 was designed from the ground up with a unique aim: Going fast over the roughest terrain - and excelling at every day adventures. For us, a gravel bike is not just “a road bike with bigger tires”. It is so much more.
It is light (970g), has room for big tires (57mm), optimal ergonomics and has the responsiveness and handling our bikes are known for.
Simply Functional
The Gr4 features an easy-access Stash Hatch for internal downtube storage, hidden mounts for fenders, multiple bottle mounts, and our Gen2 Integrated Bikepacking System — all adding to its unmatched versatility.
Massive Tyre Clearance
Curved Seatstays
Capable
Big tires are faster, grippier and will go anywhere. Cargo and bikepacking features included. Ready to take on any terrain.
Balanced
Agile yet composed handling. Direct power transfer with tuned compliance for long distances.
Lightweight
Strategic use of high-modulus carbon materials make a svelte 970 gram gravel frame, responsive and nimble.
Gravel Performance Adventure Frameset
A 970g carbon fiber frame strategically utilising advanced high-modulus materials to lower weight and increase stiffness paired with massive 2.1” MTB tires and the ergonomically optimized Modular Cockpit delivers exactly what gravel racing and off-road exploration demand: speed, comfort, and control.
SRAM RED XPLR AXS with PowerMeter
Designed for the demands of elite gravel riding, SRAM’s flagship wireless drivetrain offers a 13sp wide-range 1x setup with precise shifting, integrated PowerMeter, and bombproof reliability — from forest roads to rugged mountain trails.
Race-grade wheel and tire set-up
Zipp 303 XPLR SW carbon fibre wheelset with Schwalbe Thunder Burt 2.1” tires is the preferred set-up of 2024 Gravel Earth Series Champion Simen Nordahl Svendsen. A 32mm internal width and 54mm depth, the 303 XPLR SW is optimised for high-volume gravel tires and provides unmatched comfort and speed. Paired with Schwalbe’s 2.1” Thunder Burt tires, this setup balances low rolling resistance, superior grip, and real-world durability for racing and adventure alike.
