The Giant Revolt aluminum frame bike is about that price and is a great bike for the money. I think there is a Jamis Renegade in that price range too that is a great bike.

Hi all, I’m looking at getting my first gravel bike. A bit intimidated by all the options. My budget is ~$1200 ideally, but looking to explore my options. Living in Denver and would be used as a commuter but I mostly want it for weekend trips and some bikepacking/touring. Any suggestions or recommendations are appreciated.

Gravel bike

 There's a lot more going on around there, the rear stays which are dropped and much skinnier than before, just a more shapely frame and the result of all the changes. A nip and tuck here and there is a frame and fork on this advanced pro top-level model that is a whopping 200 grams lighter than the old model and a result of that frame weight saving along with a full carbon sub 1400 gram wheels, a Shimano Grx Di2 2 by group set, and a carbon handlebar and stem means that this size Ml without pedals is just over eight kilograms. And the weight that's as light or lighter than some road bikes I reviewed on a channel previously. So grab a bike with big tires and big tire clothes and all the amounts for water bottles and racks that weighs just over eight kilograms

 But while Revolt doesn't have the aero or the suspension or some of those other bikes, it does have a very well designed frame that delivers good compliance thanks to that seat post and handlebar, big tire clearance, all the amounts you need for up to six water bottles and everything else you might want to carry on a multi-day bike packing adventure. And it really is a deeply impressive bike. And in that way, it's an easy bike to recommend. And of course, the value for money with Giant is always strong

 As I said, at one end you have aero speed machines like the 3t Explorer Race Max or Cervelo Espero. At the other end a super capable off-road mounted by Influence bikes like the Bmc, unrestricted, the open wide especially diverge and many Avoc samples. But while Revolt doesn't have the aero or the suspension or some of those other bikes, it does have a very well designed frame that delivers good compliance thanks to that seat post and handlebar, big tire clearance, all the amounts you need for up to six water bottles and everything else you might want to carry on a multi-day bike packing adventure. And it really is a deeply impressive bike

 As we are here, the weight gives a bike and an immediate sense of urgency. It gets up to speed so so quickly and maintains that high speed really easily. And these fast rolling maxis tyres definitely help with the impression of speed as well. and they're a great option for road riding and for dry, smooth gravel like this

NEW Giant Revolt Advanced Pro 2022 review: The best gravel bike you can buy?

Finally got my Giant Revolt tuned after a year of ownership and wanted to share what I find works well (for me) incase it helps anyone else out there. First the sizing: I am 6’0” with slightly longer arms for my height. And about 33” leg inseam. Went with the medium/large 56cm and after a professional bike fit I added 10mm to the stem and that was it

2022 Giant Revolt Advanced Pro 1

 [Applause] At the rear, the combination of skinny stays and the new defused post gives the posterior an almost floaty air. The 8.33 kilo weight sounds somewhat average on paper, but the revolve zero rides like a much much lighter bike. A lot of that is down to the new Cxr wheel set with a weight of 1398 grams a pair

 While it bears more than a passing resemblance to the outgoing bike, at the heart of this revolve is an all-new frame set. The frame details share much of Giant's signature design cues from the road range the triangulated head tube to the junction of the top and down tube because the Tcx Cyclocross bike with a little bit of Tcr thrown in too. You also get the low slung sloping top tube, so it's equally easy to move around on the bike when the going gets technical. At the back, the overly seat tube with its aerostyle cutaway looks very much like the Defy, as do the drop seat stays

 The reach has also been extended out to 397 millimeters from 391 to make the ride position a little racier. Although the stack height has grown by 14 mil, which means I could run the stem on, the Revolt pretty much slammed. [Music] Any thoughts of Shimano bringing the 12-speed semi-wireless updates to Grx or 2022 seem unlikely because The Revolt has the 11 speed Grx Rx 815 throughout. For me, that's a great thing

 When I found out a new Revolt was on the horizon this past winter, I felt a little bit apprehensive about where Giant would be taking the gravel bike that's impressed me in its previous guyses. The 2022 model I've put to the test is the new flagship of the range, with its revamped frame set, new lightweight gravel specific carbon wheel set, and Shimano's criminally underused Grx Di2 in its two by Guys. While it bears more than a passing resemblance to the outgoing bike, at the heart of this revolve is an all-new frame set. The frame details share much of Giant's signature design cues from the road range the triangulated head tube to the junction of the top and down tube because the Tcx Cyclocross bike with a little bit of Tcr thrown in too

WINNER Bike of The Year 2022 | Giant Revolt Advanced Pro 0 Review

For reference, a friend who rides gravel roads in the area rides 42mm and says he wouldn't go below 40mm. The other lead option is a Specialized Diverge Elite E5 (I tried the base E5 and the sport carbon) which would offer wider clearance; however, the drivetrain and specs are not as good and I haven't found one in my area yet. I tried and did not love: Salsa Vaya, Cannondale Topstone, Giant Revolt Advanced. I don't do my own mechanical work, so I am not particularly comfortable with direct-to-consumer options

Best for Most

r/camping

The Surly Midnight Special has the best frame quality among the steel bikes you listed and the Checkpoint is by far the best aluminum bike on your list and in it's category. I think both are a little over the top for a first bike, personally, but if you want to buy once and be done they are worth the money.


I will mostly be riding on mostly paved trails and maybe commuting as I’m located in the Dallas TX area, but would like a bike that has the capability of going on gravel roads, dirt trails, and bikepacking in the future. I’m not looking for fastest bike - especially considering most of the trails we’ll be riding on are shared with pedestrians - it’s mostly for fitness and the fact that my wife loves to bike. I’ve watched some of the Path Less Pedaled videos on YouTube and it’s definitely that type of ride vibe I’m looking for. 

I am looking for a high-quality, low maintenance, easy-to-maintain and repair bike. I’d like this bike to last me long-term and be extremely versatile.

Im not sure if this affects anything, but I’m a bit of a “Clydesdale” at 6’2”, 220lbs, and a 33” inseam. Not sure if that would affect any recommendation (tire size, better frame geometry, etc.)

Some options I’ve considered are as follows:
Trek FX 1 Disc - $680
Poseidon X - $750
State 4130 All-Road - $900
Poseidon Redwood - $950
State 6061 Black Label - $1400
Salsa Journeyer Sora - $1500
Salsa Journeyer Apex 1 - $1800
Canyon Grizl 6 - $1900
Priority Apollo Gravel - $2000
State 4130 All-Road XPLR AXS - $2000
Canyon Grizl 7 1by - $2200
Canyon Grail 7 - $2200
Surly Midnight Special - $2300
REI CO-OP ADV 2.3 - $2400
Salsa Journeyer GRX 600 700c - $2400
Trek Checkpoint ALR 5 -$2500
Priority 600 - $2500

To be honest, I don’t know a ton about bikes and just want to hit the easy button. The Poseidon Redwood stands out to me due to overall features and price point, and the Priority options (Apollo and 600) stand out due to their belt drive and internally geared hubs.

Thanks for taking a look and any advice you can offer!

Forever/Jack-of-all-Trades Bike? Help my Analysis Paralysis!

Otherwise, the Surley does that and everything else. Shit, I did some cross country riding on it a few weekends ago. Back to that geometry thing, I appreciate it because it rides just like I expect a road bike to ride, but the frame is ripe for customizing it to be anything you want. It's important to me because I bought it to do everything my carbon road bike can't, only to enjoy it more on what I would normally use my road bike for in the first place

I’m looking to downsize the amount of bikes I have and I’m looking for a kind of do-it-all road bike

Mostly I’ll be using it for commuting 2 miles, some urban riding, hauling groceries and a trailer with a kid. But I also want to be able to take it out for a long 30-50 mile ride comfortably. 

I want something with disc brakes and mounts for racks and fenders. Every LBS just suggests a gravel bike, but I really don’t need 42mm tires, that’s overkill. I’m also worried about a 1x set up. Plus the “gravel” trails near me are fine on skinny tires

What kind of bike would be best? I’m really struggling with this. Thanks!

Need helping finding the right style of bike

I tested a surly midnight special for similar purposes, and was stunned. The thing is quite heavy (not important if not hilly), rides fast and nimble, but has fat tires that (together with the steel frame) suck up everything. Cobblestones which have the assumed purpose of slowing down bicycles (in Antwerp) felt like hardpacked gravel feels on my road bike (i.e

Currently I ride a (\~7yo) cross-hybrid bike from Bulls. It has decent parts and does the job. I have been looking at eBikes, but came to the conclusion that my current bike is faster. Going over the 25km/h limit (Europe) with an eBike is much more difficult then with my current bike. My cruising speed on this bike is around 20-25km/h, but if I push I easily get to 30km/h and if I really push I manage to get to 40km/h (on flat tarmac).

I'm using it mostly for commuting a short distance (6km / 3,75 miles one way) and occasionally doing larger trips (20-25km / 12-16 miles one way) during weekends. We have an Urban Arrow family cargo bike which my wife uses on those trips and I'm following on my own bike. I would like to start using the bike for larger distances as well (instead of the car), but the cross-hybrid bike is not comfortable enough for me to do that. It also takes too much time.

I chose the cross-hybrid because regular city bikes tend to break easily with my driving style. I don't really go off-road, but it's not tarmac all the way. If you go fast on things like a cobblestone road a regular bike won't hold up for long.

Anyway, I'm looking for a new bike with the following requirements:

* Should be able to hold up on all types of non-offroad roads/speed bumps etc.
* As fast as possible
* Somewhat comfortable to ride for longer rides
* Not too much maintenance, I don't have much time to do it myself

Since I'm also using it for commuting I also bring along a backpack. Having a sweaty back when arriving at work is annoying, but I can't seem to mount the backpack (Peak Design 30l everyday backpack) to my bike now since it is too big/heavy. So keeping it on my back is still an option. 

I'm thinking about getting a gravelbike (like the Koga Colmaro Allroad) since they are really fast and should not knock me of my bike when it rains or there is a speedbump in the road. I could use it for long distance trips as well I believe. Am I correct their, or would you rather suggest a hybrid-race bike or tour bike for example (ignoring budget for now)?

I'm not looking for advice on a specific bike, just the type of bike. Thanks!
