Summary

The Devinci Hatchet is a versatile gravel bike praised for its stability, comfort, and ability to handle a variety of terrains. Its modern geometry, ample tire clearance, and carbon frame construction contribute to a stiff yet comfortable ride. While it excels in off-pavement exploration and technical terrain, some reviews note its weight and gearing may not suit all riders, especially on steep climbs.

Pros
  • Modern geometry with longer reach and shorter stems

  • Carbon frame and fork offer a stiff, efficient, and comfortable ride

  • Ample tire clearance for versatile terrain handling

  • Dropper post enhances ride quality on technical terrain

  • Stable and predictable at high speeds

Cons
  • Dropper post adds significant weight

  • 50/34 chain rings and 11/32 cassette may not be sufficient for steep climbs

  • Not the lightest bike, may not appeal to weight weenies

Key Quotes
I’ve always been a proponent of bigger tires on gravel bikes, but even I thought 50mm might be a little overkill.

"The Hatchet Carbon rips."
CX Magazine logoCX Magazine
The Hatchet is an easy-riding companion ideally suited to endurance rides and gravel races.
BikeRadar logoBikeRadar
This is not a road bike with extra clearance. This bike is built to shred, to climb up fire roads and tear up singletrack on the way down.

First Ride: Devinci Hatchet makes quick work of Grinduro Canada w/ big tires and a dropper

Aug 2019 · Zach Overholt

When I agreed to fly up to Canada to check out the new Devinci Hatchet, I didn’t really know what I was getting myself into. Sure, I knew that we’d have a few days to acclimate to the bike and the terrain before jumping headlong into the first ever Grinduro Canada. But what I didn’t …

Devinci’s Hatchet carbon rides like a mini mountain bike: super stable at speed and easy to pop around on the trail if you find singletrack on your ride.

Devinci Hatchet Carbon Ultegra Di2 review

Oct 2016 · Josh Patterson

Easy riding gravel bike for rough roads. Buy if you want a comfortable, stable bike for all-day rides on any road

Highs
  • Good tire clearance, forgiving frame, relaxed handling

Lows
  • No third bottle mount underneath the downtube, Shimano needs to introduce clutch-equipped derailleurs to its roads groups
