CANYON GRAVEL BIKES

What is a gravel bike?

A gravel bike is
designed for both paved roads and dirt tracks. At first glance, it looks like a
road bike, but its wider tires, frame geometry, and components are specifically
adapted for gravel paths and forest trails. Offering more comfort than a
cyclocross bike and nearly the same agility as a road bike, gravel bikes are also
perfect for long bikepacking trips or weekend rides.

How do gravel bikes differ from road bikes?

Gravel bikes and road bikes
bikes and road bikes share similarities in frame shape and drop bars. Unlike road bikes, gravel bikes allow you to go beyond paved roads and
cycle paths. Think of them as adventure-ready road bikes. Spot a bridleway? See
where it leads. That forest path looks tempting? Go for it – your gravel
adventure awaits!Depending on the accessories, a gravel bike can be used as a
bike for everyday day or a specific touring bike. You can attach custom-fit
mudguards at mounting points to shield yourself from water and mud. The frame
geometry of gravel bikes is more versatile than the race-focused cyclocross
bikes, ensuring a comfortable ride.
