Summary

The Giant Revolt is a versatile gravel bike praised for its comfort, stability, and handling across various terrains. Its D-Fuse seatpost and handlebar system significantly reduce vibration, enhancing ride quality. While it excels in versatility and value, some models may feel heavy or lack aggressive tire treads for extreme conditions.

Pros
  • D-Fuse seatpost and handlebar enhance comfort and reduce vibration

  • Stable yet responsive handling suitable for diverse terrains

  • Versatile with mounts for racks and mudguards, and clearance for wide tires

  • Good value for the price, offering premium features at competitive costs

  • Effective damping and comfort make it ideal for long-distance rides

Cons
  • Some models are heavier, affecting acceleration and agility

  • Tires may lack aggressive tread for very muddy or technical trails

  • Limited upgrade options due to frame-specific components like the seatpost

  • Hybrid braking systems offer adequate performance but not on par with full hydraulic systems

Key Quotes
The Revolt helped me find adventure when I really couldn’t go that far.
Canadian Cycling Magazine logoCanadian Cycling Magazine
It’s the Toyota Camry of budget gravel bikes. Completely reliable, functional, and predictable, but without a single feature that would really make you want it.
Cycling Tips logoCycling Tips
The Giant Revolt 0 has the ability to reignite that childlike passion, and indeed to rekindle the flame of freedom that cycling offers at every stage in our two-wheeled education.

Review: Giant Revolt Advanced Pro 0 delivers a smooth ride with low but not slack geometry

Nov 2021 · Ben Delaney

I like the new geometry, the overall ride feel, and the parts package. And yes, I broke the seatpost.

Giant Revolt 0 2020 review

Feb 2020

For £1,499 the Giant Revolt 0 gravel bike offers very impressive performance on the road and in the woods, with an easy agility that makes it fun to carve through the corners. The fast-rolling tyres aren't for the committed off-roader, and the alloy frame can be a little harsh despite its carbon fork, but the Revolt 0 is a fine all-rounder – and there's nothing to hold you back on your commute or weekend road ride either.

Giant Revolt Advanced 0 2019 gravel bike review - CyclingTips

May 2019 · Dave Rome

New for 2019, the Revolt Advanced is Giant’s first carbon gravel-focussed steed. Built with performance in mind, it’s a clear departure from Giant’s previous and surprisingly numerous gravel-styled models. I spent the past couple months riding the Revolt Advanced 0 and came away impressed. It’s not only a great leap above the Giant ToughRoad SLR […]

Highs
  • Smooth, efficient and composed ride, unquestionably good value, reliable components.

Lows
  • Subdued handling for a performance bike, matte paint, the name.
