"The Crux is the lightest gravel bike in the world, with the exceptional capability of massive tire clearance and performance gravel geometry. It’s not just the ultimate expression of gravel performance, it’s your one-way ticket to gravel enlightenment.

This Crux Pro comes spec'd with a accurate and quick-shifting SRAM Force eTap AXS hydraulic disc groupset, lightweight and durable Roval Terra CL Disc wheels, and 2Bliss Ready, 700x38mm Pathfinder Pro tires that hookup over nasty terrain."

  • Lightest: 725g S-Works 12r and 825g 10r frames. We took the revolutionary breakthroughs that made Aethos the lightest bike ever and applied them to the Crux. The result? A gravel bike that climbs like a dream, floats over nightmarish terrain, and weighs less than a full bottle in your cage.

  • Capable: 47c/650b x 2.1” tire clearance. More clearance means more capability. With Diverge-level tire clearance, Crux takes you anywhere you can imagine, at full gas.

  • Responsive: Nimble, supple, and reactive. Responsive at the pedals. Supple in the saddle. With performance gravel geometry and race-influenced fit inspired by Crux’s iconic history in ‘cross.

Crux pro

Read a lot of articles and videos about this bike. I wanted a bike that was capable of road and gravel rides so far I believe it’s more than capable for that. Always had road bikes and gravel that were 2x this is my first for a 1x and so far really haven’t noticed a lot of difference. Top speed for me 26-28mph down a grade 75-80rpm which is fine for me. Shifting and braking having no problems with I have really enjoyed it so far becoming my go to bike for most rides. Grade A
