For This Bike
Apr 2018 · Mike Hawkins
Staking GT’s claim to the gravel road market comes the Grade Alloy 105, which manages to offer something to everyone
Phenomenal ride character and overall package
Sturdy build adds kilos
Nov 2016 · Stu Kerton
Versatile, fast and capable multi-terrain bike that's impressive straight out of the box, but it's pricey

GT launched the Grade two years ago, billing it more as an endurance bike with extra versatility, rather than just a gravel machine. The tire clearance, geometry, and feature set were decidedly progressive then, but how does it fare today? After more than three months on a top-end Grade Carbon Ultegra model, U.S.

No mere trendsetter, the Grade opens up new avenues, tracks and trails to more grin-inducing riding fun than you thought possible. Buy if you want to escape the confines of tarmac-only rides and explore the roads less travelled
Ride quality, multi-surface ability, fun
Long climbs are likely to be stately rather than speedy affairs

Brilliant ride on and off road
Top spec for adventure road riding
Great stability and control
