Description
Grade Carbon X
A carbon gravel bike designed for spontaneous trips. The Rockshox Rudy XPLR 40mm travel fork with 50mm Trans-X dropper post allow you to go faster, farther, and have more fun.
Gravel Travel
The Grade frame’s Triple Triangle design with floating stays provides up to 30mm of “Gravel Travel” with no rubber bumpers, pivots, or mechanical features. This was made possible in part by our Dual Fiber Dynamics (DFD) in the floating stays, which is a combination of low modulus, solid core, long strand glass fibers molded to an optimal shape and then wrapped in carbon for increased strength and smooth transitions.
Integrated Frame Protection
Grade is equally comfortable on bumpy single track as it is on flat tarmac. So we’ve put strong frame protection on the downtube to protect against rock hits, as well as on the chainstay to prevent chain slap.
Suspension fork compatible
If you prefer tough and chunky terrain and require more than Grade’s 30mm of gravel travel, add a suspension fork for even more rowdiness!
