Summary
The Giant Revolt is a highly versatile gravel bike, praised for its comfort, handling, and capability on rough terrain. It features a redesigned geometry for aggressive off-road riding, a flip-chip dropout for adjustable tire clearance, and a suspension fork on some models. While it excels in versatility and ride quality, some reviews note limitations like weight and specific component issues.
Redesigned geometry for aggressive off-road riding
Flip-chip dropout for adjustable tire clearance
Versatile with mounts for accessories
Comfortable ride quality
Suspension fork on some models for rougher terrain
Can be heavy, especially with suspension
Some component issues like dropper post adjustability
Limited size range for some specs
Not ideal for fully-loaded bikepacking
Giant figure they could make an even more capable off-road gravel bike for the gnarliest adventure riding & ultra-distance racing… enter the upcoming Revolt X!
The increased clearance and the extended wheelbase also have an effect on the trail, pushing it out to 68mm on this size-large model.
It’s not a go-fast gravel bike that you’d use for something like SBT GRVL or even Unbound Gravel, and it’s obviously not quite a mountain bike. But for that grey area in between, there’s enough capability baked into it that it feels almost irresponsibly fun.

The GIANT Revolt X comes with a suspension fork, a dropper post, and a wide range drivetrain. Have they overshot the gravel target, or is it just right?
Great build, great handling, and lots of versatility
Balanced front and rear damping
Lively yet balanced handling
Dropper remote is difficult to reach and gets in the way while riding

2022’s Bike of the Year gets a rowdy reimagining
Excellent mullet spec
Huge off road capability
Smooth comfort
Dropper can get bouncy
May be too dirt focused for some
