Gravel Bikes

Discover the excitement of this new cycling trend

The gravel bike has revolutionized the cycling world by combining the best of the road bike and mountain bike. This type of bike is the perfect product for those who refuse to choose between speed and exploration. Its robust frame and wider wheels, often equipped with knobby tires, allow it to transition effortlessly from smooth roads to dirt paths and gravel tracks. It's the ideal bike for long rides, offering a superior level of comfort thanks to a more forgiving geometry and optimized shock absorption. This model is a true invitation to adventure, allowing you to explore new horizons without compromise.

Our Bike Models: Triban, Van Rysel, and Rockrider

When it's time to choose your bike model, three of our brands stand out: Triban, Van Rysel, and Rockrider. Triban bikes are known for their excellent value for the price, comfort, and versatility, making them ideal for beginners and long rides. The frame and wheels of these products are designed for varied use. If performance is your priority, opt for the Van Rysel brand. The lighter and stiffer frame of this type of bike, optimized for speed and competition, is aimed at cyclists looking for a competitive edge. Finally, Rockrider bikes are hybrid models equipped with suspension and wider tires. They are perfect for those who want to ride on uneven terrain while maintaining a certain comfort.

The Choice Between Gravel and Road Bike

The main difference between a gravel bike and a road bike lies in their design and use. The road bike is specifically designed for performance on asphalt, with a stiffer frame, thinner wheels, and a more aerodynamic position. It's ideal for speed and competition. The gravel bike, on the other hand, is a hybrid product. Its frame is more flexible, its wheels wider, and its geometry more stable, offering more comfort on varied terrain. If you plan on taking long rides on gravel paths, this is the model for you.
