2024’s Best New Gravel Bikes Revealed!

Those Sage bikes are amazing,i wish i could afford one some day❤

Sage Storm King and Moots Routt ESC both look fantastic, but holy second mortgage Batman! I hope Ozark Trail can borrow some of their design principles. 😂

Basso for me

Can we all just call them "printed" dropouts? I think it's pretty obvious that they're 3D.

How much cable on that Campag mech 🤮

Moin Ingo, Hammer Video! Danke dafür. Schau mir den Rucksack an. Kurze Frage. Welcher Varia Halter ist das im Video? 🙏🏽

Haha…so funny…sounds like the 90’s again, you mean…you like suspension on the front when off road..and a dropper…mind blowing revelations! Lol

Didn’t rate any of the bikes I’ll stick to my grail sl8

The anodized paint on the first Sage bike was pretty cool.

LOVE THE RITCHEY!

That first Sage Stormking is awesome.... would be all over that if it wasn't 6k LOL

"Full Fox, Race Face, Easton parts on this bike ..."

You can say that about every bike ever made, if you just list the parts on the bike.

More MOOTS, please!

Hmm thanks or the brief round up. I’m glad I didn’t buy a ticket to go to Sea Otter for the new gravel releases if that’s all there is! ...A pretty disappointing line up of ‘new’ gravel bikes to be honest. The hottest new gravel bike at Sea Otter might be the one I saw on another channel, the 'Thesis N1', titanium with fully adjustable gravel/road geo. They have it set up with gravel wheelset on the front and road on the back.
…and any sign of the mythical GRX Di2 12 speed?

I wouldn't call a drop bar MTB a gravel bike, but I think it's something that should be on market.
I'd love to see 2in1 remote integrated into drop bar brake lever.

I can't stand that Ekar gear cable housing loop. It 's so ugly it hurts my eyes. It spoils what is probably a great groupset.

Sage bikes! Love em!

Was down at Laguna today. What an event. That Basso with Ekar was sweet.

I dont get titanium. 30 yrs ago before Carbon Fiber was popular it made some since cuz it was lighter than steel, and more comfortable than Aluminum assuming you like the ride of Ti. I only tried 3 Ti frames in the 90’s and I didnt think any ofmthem rode remotely as well as Steel…..just never lively enough for my tastes.

It was a pleasure and a privilege to have met you at Sea Otter.

Ritchey is the reason we watch

P29 Ritchey
CLASSIC never die bike

I’m surprised you didn’t mention Mosaic, given that you used one for the thumbnail. I’m a big fan of their bikes.

Ritchey all day for me.

More Dave and Sage, right on! That left shift Ritchey shock lockout is super smart. The Moots "Route Esc" is magical. Great coverage David!

Funny how titanium is still the go-to frame material for gravel bikes.

Fergus is the man!

I like the look of the Giant Revolt X but don't want carbon. I don't think carbon would be compatible with my life. The bike has to survive being carried up and down stairs and being transported in my station wagon (estate car).

So much titanium. Do people really want titanium gravel bikes now? Will the winner of any races be on titanium? I have a titanium bike but can’t imaging racing it.

Where are the Kona bikes?

LOVE to see more gravel bikes with suspension forks. It just gives you more options to get the exact bike you need.

My new trek checkpoint alr5 is fantastic for commuting. fenders and all. You should check it out .a great bike .not just European expensive bikes . Normal person riding.cheers all

I want to go to Sea Otter just to see all the company booths, and skip the race…lol

I have mixed feelings about suspension forks on gravel bikes but totally agree with dropper post on gravel. My reason for not feeling a 40mm suspension fork is value is because it’s not that significant. A gravel bike with a bigger front tire with Cushcore on a wider rim paired with good carbon drop bar plus carbon fork is close to 10mm travel, maybe more in comparison with smaller tires narrow rims and aluminum bars. Maybe I’m bias because I have been riding rigid SS hardtail’s for years

Was campag showing a new groupo or the longest shifting cable on USA soil?

I had to skip by the Sage and Mosaic bikes. I don't even want to look. Why torture myself? I want to stay married and I have one kid to get thru college still. That Ekar group though...I love the gear range options on that, but I bet it's pricey. Is anybody like Microshift showing there? I think my next build is going to be all mechanical and I don't see many options for that out there.

Love the accent. It always keeps me coming back. Keep it real and interesting as usual.

Diggin the dogma 👍👍👍👍👍 A winning bike for Tom 👍

Sorry but Moots headset spacer !
The spacers are just awful, and look too massive with the stem for a bike of this price: the finish isn't up to scratch there.

Gravel bikes are slowly evolving into full suspension mountain bikes.

Basso: saving up for a set of cutters for the rear gear outer??!!

For the record. A Ritchey crank arm broke on me while on the continental divide in northern new Mexico, halfway through a 150 mile day ride. I got " rescued " by some guys on atv's. They got me out to the hiway but i was still 100 miles from home in the dark . It was a really long day. I sent Ritchey a message about their crank failure, they didnt care.

The Mosaic!

Go Tom!!
