Aug 2021 · Stu Kerton
Wide tyres and sorted gear ratios finish off a very comfortable and capable gravel adventure bike
2x chainset works on the road and gravel
Good value
Geometry gives smooth, balanced handling
WTB tyre sidewalls weep sealant at first
I would prefer a slightly wider flare on the bar

Robust riding off-road
Under-geared for faster tarmac riding
