The ROSE BACKROAD FORCE ETAP AXS Limited adds a dash of disco flavour to our gravel bike group test with it's unique glittery look.
Numerous mounting points
Available in lots of different builds
Efficient acceleration
Confidence-inspiring on compact to moderately rough terrain
Concept isn't entirely consistent
Compliance of the seatpost dependent on the extension and setback and it isn't damped enough

Stiff, responsive gravel machine that works well on the road too
Fun and fast ride
New internal routing gives a very clean look
Reasonable weight
