Curve GMX+ Titanium Review: Performance Overlanding

Jul 2023 · Miles Arbour

The Curve GMX+ Titanium is designed to handle big rides through challenging terrain, move swiftly in a variety of conditions, and easily carry everything needed along the way.

Highs
  • All of the mounts, including unique dual-offset bottle mounts on the downtube, across all sizes

  • Massive main triangle due to higher standover leaves plenty of room for water or a frame bag

  • Long wheelbase and plenty of tire clearance make for a super stable and comfortable ride quality, day after day

  • Long reach and low stack allow for easier swaps between handlebar types

  • Titanium tubing is lightweight and comfortable, but the more affordable steel GMX+ is also a good option

  • Great build quality, clean welds, and lots of nice details

Lows
  • Long reach, low stack, and high standover might create some confusion when picking your size

  • Not particularly upright, which may not work for all riders

  • High standover isn’t ideal for technical terrain

  • Limited dealers outside of Australia, but more are coming, and Curve ships internationally

  • Pricey for a China-made titanium frame/fork, but possibly unique enough to justify it
