Germany-based Canyon might not have the name recognition of many of the brands on this list, but their Grail AL 6 adventure bike is an excellent all-around value. In short, it ticks most of the important boxes in this category, including a high-quality aluminum frame, lightweight carbon fork, and gravel-specific Shimano GRX 400 groupset (note: the GRX 400 series is 10-speed, while the 600 and 800 are 11-speed). The Grail’s proven and tubeless-ready DT Swiss wheels also are wrapped in one of our favorite gravel tires at the moment: Schwalbe’s 40-millimeter G-One Bite, which transition nicely from tarmac to trail. Finally, if appearance is a consideration for you, we think the silver and black version is one of the classiest-looking gravel bike designs on the market.

Compared to the Cannondale Topstone 1 above, the Grail AL 6 costs around $450 less (technically the AL 7 is a more direct competitor at $1,999) but comes up slightly short in a couple key areas. First and foremost, buying from a consumer-direct company like Canyon sometimes can be a pain: availability is often limited and customer service can be hit or miss, plus you don’t get the convenience of walking into your local bike shop to ride the bike or get replacement parts before buying. Further, Cannondale’s lifetime frame warranty is more impressive than Canyon’s six years. But the Grail AL 6 is a solid value nevertheless, which is one of the biggest perks of buying consumer-direct.See the Canyon Grail AL 6

Steel frames may feel more sturdy and comfortable and can be repaired/recycled. In order of budget:. - State Bicycle All Road.

Listen, all you on here have excellent, discerning taste. So I just thought I’d ask if you have any bike recommendations. Mainly I’ll be commuting about 3 miles a day, mostly through the city, with a couple big hills.

Any suggestions as to something well made that might not be from the big name brands out there? (Unless the big name brands are just as good)

Thank you

Bike recommendations?

Extreme comfort for all road riding, with capability of doing some local trails. The best budget gravel bikes out there are pretty much the State All-Road 4130 ($850) and the Poseidon X ($700). I don’t own a standard road bike, but I can tell you that the State All-Road is every bit as capable as my Cannondale Topstone 105 with road tires on it. Goes just as fast with a budget groupset and wide, slick gravel tires

I'm looking to take up cycling as a new fitness hobby and for fun. I’m 37 now and haven’t ridden since childhood, but I'm pretty athletic and have decent endurance (soccer and track background). I go to the gym regularly, etc. 

Originally, I settled on a Specialized [Sirrus 3.0](https://www.specialized.com/us/en/sirrus-3-0/p/174692?color=279691-174692&amp;searchText=90920-7700) after a ton of research. I put down a deposit at local shop. Waiting for it to come in. 

In the meantime, I've been watching YouTube bike videos, Tour de France, etc… And I'm wondering if after a very short while I’d probably wanna do legit group rides or even race.

Ultimately, I really miss sports and being competitive (ankles can’t handle soccer anymore) and think I might want to try road racing- but I have a million considerations:

First off, my main consideration is the roads and where I can or can't ride it. I live in upstate NY (Buffalo suburbs) and getting mixed opinions from a couple friends that ride. A couple people said they don’t enjoy their road bikes because of the crappy roads here and recommended I go with the Sirrus (fitness bike, flat bars), or even a Trek Dual Sport (flat bars, front suspension). They pointed out that I might have to drive a road bike somewhere first to really use it - which I DO NOT want to do. On the other hand, I have a family friend who does iron man triathlons, road races, etc and he said him and his friends ride (their road bikes) all over WNY and just avoid certain roads. Very different opinions :/  

Second - Admittedly, I’m a bit intimidated by the drop bars and slightly unstable feeling of a road bike after 20 some years away from my BMX lol. Maybe I shouldn’t care since I assume you get over that quick? But with regards to what my friends were saying about the roads here, maybe its still a reason to lean towards a flat bar bike? Rough roads, potholes, etc. 

Third - price. Willing to spend about $500-$1000 on a fitness bike but seems like it’d be at least double that for a decent road bike- maybe more for 105 groupset and disc brakes. Maybe I’m wrong? Willing to go $1500-2500 for road bike. Or should I even spend that much? Does your first bike get scuffed up, etc? Clearly, I know nothing haha…

Lastly, it just seems like a lot to figure out and get into if you don’t have a group of friends who ride. Road bike is more $$$, more kit, more gear. Easy to just go for a fitness bike and be able to take off from your house with less things to worry about. 

Someone help steer me :)

Thanks in advance !

FITNESS BIKE or ROAD BIKE? Many noob questions…

 It’s a great bike for the price. I say it’s the best sub-$1,000 gravel bike on the US market.

It’s the same stuff. I have a Topstone 105 and a Poseidon Redwood and I am very pleased with the budget State All-Road 4130. It’s a great bike for the price. I say it’s the best sub-$1,000 gravel bike on the US market

This is my first “adult” bike and my gift to myself for completing my masters.  I went with State because I heard they’re great value for the money.

My bike has ~40 miles on it, and I’ve had to stop really often to retighten the saddle, it would slip and jam the front into me.  I took it apart and the teeth are totally stripped out - it was initially torqued to spec and I carry self-recovery tools with me, even wrenching it down tight won’t help anymore and I have hover over the seat and barely rest right in the middle

Today I rode about 5 miles and my left pedal arm, initially meticulously assembled and torqued to spec came loose, I tightened it and right as I got home it came home.

The chain randomly slips gears, the bike shop said it’s assembled correctly as far as they can tell.

I really want to love this bike but I’m so disappointed in the quality so far,  barely worth $600 - even in 2022 inflation adjusted dollars. 

Can someone help me solve the issues with the seat and pedal arm?  Any tips for enjoying my bike?  Thanks!

EDIT: UPDATE from State:

(My Name),

I was looking through your file and I cannot find your bike registration and proof of professional assembly. Did you have your bike professionally assembled?

I can send you a new seat-post with your missing white water-bottle holder but in the future your warranty will not be active if your bike was not professionally assembled.

You can also have your new seatpost installed at your local bike shop and ask them for a safety check to see if the bike was properly assembled. With an itemized receipt we will accept that as well.

Here is a link to our warranty page where you will find information about your warranty and the link to register your bike:

Your order number for your missing water bottle cage and replacement seatpost:
