Gravel Bikes

Gravel bikes are the most versatile bikes you can buy around Toronto: fast on pavement, at home on rail trails, the Don Valley and rural Ontario gravel. We stock gravel bikes from Specialized, Cervélo, BMC and Cannondale.

Race gravel or adventure gravel?

  • Race gravel: light, quick handling, for gravel events and fast group rides. Think Specialized Crux, Cervélo Aspero, BMC Kaius.
  • Adventure / all-road: more comfort, more tire clearance and mounts for bags. Think Specialized Diverge and Cannondale Topstone.

1x or 2x?

1x (one chainring) is simple and great for mixed terrain. 2x gives closer gear steps, better if you also ride a lot of road. We’ll help you pick based on where you ride.

Tires

Most riders around Toronto are happy on 38–45mm tires. Wider tires add comfort and grip on loose gravel.
