The Grail really impressed me with its sheer speediness, and although the bike isn't the lightest out there, it propels up hills effortlessly and traces down them with confidence.

The new Grail CF is certainly among the stiffer gravel bikes I’ve ridden in recent memory, as it perhaps should be given the new racing focus.
