The aluminum-framed Polygon Bend R9X gravel bike, with premium components, offers a distinctive alternative in the carbon-dominated gravel bike market, though its unique features may not suit everyone based on testing.
Carbon wheels and SRAM Rival AXS drivetrain are the highlight of a pretty solid spec for the price
Aggressive geometry capable of pushing the limits of “traditional” gravel riding
Generous mounting options on frame and fork
Aluminum frame felt harsh on washboard roads and pocked trails
RockShox Reverb AXS post was too short for low-slung frame
