The Surprising Truth About Gravel Bikes Uncovering Their Secret Mountain Bike Abilities

Why don't you just buy a mountain bike? And in fact, it now offers both rear suspension, as well as front suspension, which does beg the question, at what point does it just become a mountain bike? Whereas this bike is coming stock with 42 millimeter tires, these Tracer Pros on 700C wheels. So the new generation, this STR can fit up to 47 millimeter tires on a 700C wheel or 650B by 2.1. So pretty massive tire clearance and 2.1s. Again, is that really just a mountain bike? Well, most of that does come into the geometry because this is going to be fitting more like an endurance bike in a similar geometry setup as the prior generation.
