The Crux is the lightest gravel bike we have ever developed. It has exceptionally large tire clearance and an extremely sporty gravel geometry. It is not only the ultimate expression of gravel performance, but also your ticket to the gravel world.
The Crux Comp is equipped with the reliable and smooth-shifting Rival 1 complete groupset from SRAM including hydraulic disc brakes, robust G540 wheels from DT Swiss and Pathfinder Pro 2Bliss Ready tires in 700 × 38 mm, which will take you quickly and safely through rough terrain.
- Extra light: The S-Works frame made of FACT 12r carbon weighs just 725 g, the normal frame made of FACT 10r carbon weighs 825 g. We achieved this by applying the revolutionary knowledge gained from developing the world's lightest road bike frame, the Aethos, to the Crux. The result? A gravel bike that climbs like a dream, flies over rough terrain and weighs less than the full water bottle in your bottle cage.
- Versatile: The Crux has 2.1 inches of tire clearance on a 650B wheel size and 47C on a 700. More tire clearance means more options. Just like our Diverge, the Crux will take you anywhere, at full throttle.
- Direct handling: The Crux is light, playful and direct. Its iconic history in cyclocross has influenced the performance-focused gravel geometry and the riding position optimized for competition.
