The Crux is the lightest gravel bike in the world, with the exceptional capability of massive tire clearance and performance gravel geometry. It’s not just the ultimate expression of gravel performance, it’s your one-way ticket to gravel enlightenment.

This S-Works Crux comes spec'd with SRAM's pinnacle RED eTap AXS hydraulic disc groupset, lightweight and durable Roval Terra CLX Disc wheels, and 2Bliss Ready, 700x38mm Pathfinder Pro tires that hookup over nasty terrain.

  • Lightest: 725g S-Works 12r and 825g 10r frames. We took the revolutionary breakthroughs that made Aethos the lightest bike ever and applied them to the Crux. The result? A gravel bike that climbs like a dream, floats over nightmarish terrain, and weighs less than a full bottle in your cage.

  • Capable: 47c/650b x 2.1” tire clearance. More clearance means more capability. With Diverge-level tire clearance, Crux takes you anywhere you can imagine, at full gas.

  • Responsive: Nimble, supple, and reactive. Responsive at the pedals. Supple in the saddle. With performance gravel geometry and race-influenced fit inspired by Crux’s iconic history in ‘cross.

The bike that does it all

I recently built one of these guys up for cyclocross but since cyclocross won't be in season for a while I threw some gravel tires on and turned it in to the ultimate gravel machine. I have taken this thing all over the place putting in some good miles on the road, gravel roads and even some mountain bike trails. This bike handled everything I took it on some gnarly blue trails on South Mountain and it didn't hold me back one bit. Best gravel bike I have ever had!

Awesome Bike

I absolutely love this bike! The birch color is amazing in the sun and changes colors along with all the speckles throughout the bike. The Red group set is smooth and shifts fast and crisp. This model also has the power meter included. Very happy with the stock tires and the wheels are hand built with supplied spec sheets. Some folks may not like the exposed cables and lack of one piece handlebar assembly. I would not recommend this bike for long adventures because of the lack of mounting holes. I am always skeptical of the weights people throw around but in Size 54 with pedals and cages this bike weighs 16.52 pounds on my scale. The bike climbs well and feels quick and nimble. I have also rode it on the tarmac and it is very capable and fast. A hefty price tag but this bike is ready to go out of the box with no modifications needed. The only thing I changed was to go tubeless (it is tubeless ready) which IMO all gravel bikes need to be. This bike shipped with tubes.

s-works crux자전거

그래블 바이크이면서 가벼운 무게에 놀랍습니다. 포장 자전거에서는 올라운드 로드가 되고 비포장 도로에서는 MTB만큼은 아니지만 적당한 텐션을 가지고 주행이 가능합니다. 속도는 로드 만큼은 아니지만 30~40KM/Hour정도는 거뜬합니다. 예쁘게 잘빠진 크래임축과 힐은 세워놓고 바라보아도 충분히 만족감스럽습니다. 아직 본격적인 업힐은 경험하지 못했지만 봄이되면 산으로 들판으로 출사다닐 동반자로로도 충분할것 같아요.
