Gravel Bikes

What serious bike to choose?

The choice of a serious bike for travel adventures requires taking into account several essential factors. Here is a guide to choose the ideal gravel bike for your trips:

• Versatility : the engravel bikes are designed for maximum versatility. They are suitable for a variety of terrains, including paved roads, gravel trails, dirt roads and forest trails. Make sure that the bike you choose is able to adapt to these different surfaces for various trips.

• Comfort : long bike trips require a certain level of comfort. Look for a bike with a geometry that favors a comfortable driving position, wide tires to absorb shocks, and a saddle adapted to your anatomy.

• Loading capacity : if you plan bikepacking trips, make sure that the bike can carry bags or luggage. Fasteners and eyelets for luggage racks are one more.

• Frame size : the size of the frame must match your size to ensure a comfortable and efficient driving. Incorrect adjustment can cause pain or injury.

• Transmission : choose a transmission adapted to your needs. For busy and varied trips, a wide range of speeds is recommended.

• Freins : hydraulic disc brakes are ideal for serious bicycles, offering reliable braking power under various conditions.

• Robustness : travel can sometimes be demanding for a bike. Opt for a sustainable model with quality components.

A gravel bike for the trip must be versatile, comfortable, capable of carrying luggage, and suitable for your size. Make sure that it is ready to face a variety of terrains and that it corresponds to your specific bike travel needs.
