Excitement guaranteed by the carbon frame of this gravel bike: fast, precise, it ensures comfortable steering and helps you improve your speed. Designed for electric groupsets, only the brake cable housings run through the inside of this UCI-certified frame. Its tube cross-sections have been optimized for better lateral rigidity—but it doesn't sacrifice flexibility, which you need for absorbing the terrain!

● Frame weight in size M: 1058 g (37 oz.)

A reliable, high performance carbon frame

We designed this frame to fit the following heights:
S: 156/170 cm (5'1" / 5'7")
Size M: 168/180 cm (5'6" / 5'11")
Size L: 178/190 cm (5'10" / 6'3")
Size XL: 188/200 cm (6'2" / 6'7")

If you're between two sizes, base your choice on your preferences. Looking for compactness, responsiveness, weight, and a certain look? Choose the smaller size.
Stability and comfort (back, neck)? Opt for the larger size.
The Reach value (find on photo 2) is important to consider in relation to your personal preferences.

Choosing the right size for your GCR

Essential to your comfort, the carbon fork contributes significantly to the playfulness of this gravel bike and ensures extremely precise steering. Since the carbon improves the stiffness and the flexibility of the front of the bike, this fork provides good stability for your rides and combines fun, performance, and reliability.

● Thru axle: 12 x 100 mm (1/2" x 4") for the fork, 12 x 142 mm (1/2" x 5 5/8") at the rear.
● Fork weight: 442 g (15 1/2 oz.)

A carbon fork for effective stability

Our gravel bike is equipped with the new 12-speed SRAM Force XPLR AXS groupset: its 100% wireless connectivity is a revolution in cycling. Thanks to this complete drive train where each module can be replaced independently, you can discover the joy of simple, fast, and precise gear changes. Finally, customise and analyze the data from your bike with SRAM's intuitive app.

SRAM Force XPLR AXS Drivetrain: The technological must-have

With the 40-tooth SRAM Force AXS chainset and the SRAM Force 10-44 12-speed cassette, you get a larger range of gears for riding as efficiently as possible on both flats and hills!

For your information, here are the different crank sizes:

● S: 170 cm (67")
● M: 172.5 cm (68")
● L/XL: 175 mm (69")



With the 40T Chainset and 12-speed cassette, your efficiency will always be the best!

The Reynolds 4.1XL 700 carbon wheels (40 mm [1 1/2"]) are lightweight, responsive and sturdy.With their inner rim width of 23 mm (1"), these wheels are perfect for wider tires. They’re specifically designed for gravel, with their 24 steel spokes, and are tubeless ready. Weight: 1685 g (59 1/2 oz.)
We advise you register your wheels with the manufacturer in order to benefit from their 2 year warranty for the complete wheel and a lifetime warranty for the rim.

Reynolds carbon wheels: For perfect performance!

We chose to equip our carbon gravel bike with Hutchinson Touareg 700 x 40 mm tires for their versatility and flexibility. Originally installed tubeless, you'll need to add the sealant provided with the bike yourself. The even, grippy design of this tire excels on dry ground, but is not recommended on very wet terrain. 
The sidewalls are reinforced to help the tire withstand impacts and stones.
127 TPI carcass.

Versatile Hutchinson Touareg tires

The wheels are set up as tubeless, but come without sealant installed!
You'll need to add the sealant directly into the valve, after deflating the tire and removing the valve cap. Note that the bottle of sealant provided with the bike is enough for both tires (60 ml [2 oz.] of product per tire). To finish, fully tighten the valve cap and reinflate the tires to the desired pressure, between 1.8 and 3 bars maximum.

Tubeless assembly for greater reliability and puncture resistance

The maximum size for tire width is 42 mm (1 2/3").

Maximum clearance for tires

This carbon gravel bike comes with SRAM Force hydraulic brakes. We chose this system because the braking power provided by the hydraulic disc brakes allows you to perfectly control your bike and adds steering comfort in all conditions. No need to force your brakes to slow down: braking is smooth, progressive, and precise!

● Front disc: 160 mm (6 1/4")
● Rear disc: 160 mm (6 1/4")

Hydraulic disc brakes

Our carbon gravel bike is equipped with an oversize aluminum Ergo handlebar with a 16° flare, meaning the angle between the vertical part and the side of the handlebars. For a size S, the handlebar width will be 400 mm (15 3/4"), for a size M/L, 420 mm (16 1/2"), and for a size XL, 440 mm (17 1/3").
For our carbon gravel bike, we opted for an oversize Ergo aluminum stem. Here is the stem sizing in detail:

● S: 80 mm (3")
● M: 90 mm (3 1/2")
● L: 100 mm (4")
● XL: 110 mm (4 1/3")

Focus on the handlebar and stem

Our carbon gravel bike is fitted with the Fizik Argo Terra X5 saddle. This ergonomic saddle provides comfort and stability, while limiting pressure points and absorbing vibrations during rides.
The seat post is aluminum and has a diameter of 27.2 mm (1"). For size S/M, the seat post is 350 mm (13 3/4") long, and for size L/XL, it is 400 mm (15 3/4") long.


Saddle and seat post

The derailleur battery and SRAM charger are provided with the bike. SRAM says that the battery will last about 20-40 hours (500-1000 km [300-600 mi]) and we recommend that you fully charge it before using your carbon gravel bike for the first time. 
We recommend recharging it at least once a month. 
The shifter batteries are directly integrated by SRAM and synchronized with the derailleur during assembly, so you don't have to do anything.

SRAM shifters and derailleur battery

This Force/Reynolds configuration (without pedals or sealant) weighs approximately:

GCR Force/Reynolds S: 8.2 kg (18 lbs)
GCR Force/Reynolds M 8.25 kg (18 1/5 lbs)
GCR Force/Reynolds L 8.5 kg (18 3/4 lbs)
GCR Force/Reynolds XL 8.7 kg (19 lbs)

The maximum load is 110 kg (245 lbs) regardless of the size of the bike.

Quality is in our DNA!
Each bike is fully assembled by the same technician at our B'Twin Village plant in Lille, France.
Each technician is committed to ensuring the quality of every bike they assemble.
For example, each screw is tightened with a connected torque wrench that provides very detailed quality monitoring (i.e. recommended and actual tightening torque, who does it and when). You will have access to these data from the first quarter of 2023.

Bike quality assurance

Your GCR comes with a box that includes:
- Traditional pedals: we recommend the use of clipless pedals to get the most out of your bike.
- 1 bottle of tubeless preventive sealant for both wheels + the tool to tighten/loosen the valve.
- 2 hydraulic brake blocks (the second is mounted on the bike in the original packaging).
- 1 bike bell
- 1 front and rear light.
- 1 torque wrench.

Little things to know about the bike

We recommend avoiding high-pressure water jets when washing your carbon gravel bike to avoid damage. We recommend cleaning your Riverside SRAM Carbon Gravel bike after each ride, particularly after confronting particularly muddy or dusty terrain. In addition, remember to check your tire pressure and braking efficacy before each ride.
