KEY PERFORMANCE FACTORS
FAST AND VERSATILE
An Advanced-grade composite frame and fork combine for lightweight efficiency and smooth control. A two-position flip chip on the rear dropout lets you adjust the wheelbase: short for quicker handling, or long for added tyre clearance (up to 53mm) and improved stability. You can use the included D-Fuse seatpost* for more flex and compliance, or switch to a traditional 30.9mm round seatpost or dropper post.
TUNED COMPLIANCE
Dropped seatstays with small-diameter tubing absorb road shocks and vibrations on all types of gravel. The Contact SL XR D-Fuse alloy handlebar and carbon D-Fuse seatpost* help smooth out rough tracks, improving control and minimising fatigue over long distances.
SMART INTEGRATION
Internally routed cables offer clean, uncluttered cockpit aesthetics and improved aero performance. An easily accessed storage compartment inside the top tube lets you securely carry tools, snacks and other essentials. And additional integrated mounts on the top tube, fork and rear dropout make it easy to modify with additional packs or fenders. All-new, moulded, chainstay and down tube protection help defend the frame against impacts and quell noise.

Weight
The most accurate way to determine any bike’s weight is to have your local dealer weigh it for you. Many brands strive to list the lowest possible weight, but in reality weight can vary based on size, finish, hardware and accessories. All our bikes are designed for best-in-class weight and ride quality.
