By Rachel Sokal

First released in 2016 Sonder Camino Ti has been around for as long as Sonder
itself. From then until now it remains one of the most popular bikes in the
range and one that is frequently recommended on many a “what gravel bike…?”
thread.



It’s well thought of at Cycling Weekly too, back in 2020 we crowned it with our
Editor’s Choice Award. There have been a few changes to the Camino’s design
since then so it feels like a good time to see how it performs in this year’s
Gravel Bike of the Year testing.


THE CONSTRUCTION

For this year we had the titanium-framed version of the Camino which looks
beautiful, there’s just something straight tubes with a raw finish that’s hard
to beat (and that’s not just because they’re really easy to clean). There’s also
the advantage of the finish being much more durable to wear and tear than a
painted or carbon frame, a real bonus if you’re looking to add luggage. The
alloy version is also available if your budget is more modest (frame only Ti
£1,999, alloy £599).






Whatever the terrain, the Camino is always a good laugh to ride

To keep the clean look the cabling runs internally through the down tube. To
make servicing quicker and easier there’s an access hatch under the bottom
bracket shell so you can re-cable without the need for specialist tools. There
are additional cable ports to run various shifter/mech combinations as well as a
dropper post and an array of mounts. The positioning of the seat tube mounts on
the small frame means you can’t fit a 600ml bottle if you’re running a standard
frame bag under the top tube.



The Camino is unashamedly a bike that’s designed for technical gravel as much as
long-distance adventures. This is reflected in the geometry, the wheelbase
(small frame, 1050mm) and chainstays (434mm) are longer than most of the other
bikes in our test and the head angle slacker too (69o). The stack is relatively
high to allow a more upright and comfortable position for longer days in the
saddle (reach 380mm, stack 564mm). You can also fit up to 50mm 700cc tyres or
650b wheels with 2.2” tyres if you want to push the Camino’s technical
abilities.





These are flared bars from Sonder, but you can spec a wide variety of
alternatives

(Image credit: Future)

There’s a huge choice of build options for the Camino, in the titanium model
alone there are 11 (plus frame only) listed on the website and each can be
tailored to the exact specification you wish. That much choice will either
excite or terrify you, either way, it’s not as complicated as it sounds.

The key difference between the models is the drive train with pretty much every
level of SRAM XPLR, SRAM Road, Shimano GRX and Shimano Road available to choose
including 1x, 2x, mechanical and electronic. Campagnolo Ekar is also an option.



Our bike was equipped as standard with the 12-speed Rival AXS drivetrain

Once you’ve chosen your drive chain model that suits your brand, gearing and
budget you can pretty much choose all the remaining components or stick with the
standard build. Some of the changes are like for like so don’t incur additional
charges, others are upgrades. This affordable customisation is also a feature of
the Cotic Cascade. For the Camino, you can even ask Sonder to build the bike
with your own sourced components, with the price reduced accordingly.



For our review we chose the standard build of the Ti Rival 1 AXS XPLR as at
£3,199 it fell comfortably within our budget. In addition to the 12-speed Rival
AXS drivetrain and brakes the build comes with a monocoque carbon fork and
Sonder Alpha alloy wheels (built in Sonder’s Nottingham HQ) with Goodyear
Connector 45mm tyres. The finishing kit is all Sonder including the flared alloy
bar and saddle which has a very close resemblance to the popular Fabric Scoop.


THE RIDE

The moment you throw your leg over the Camino you can feel like you’re going to
have a good time. This is not a bike that dictates what and how you ride, it’s a
bike that asks what you fancy doing and instantly being up for the adventure. In
fact, my first couple of days on the Camino proved its adaptability and
capability to do it all.

First ride out I strapped on many, very full bags of bike luggage to venture off
for my son’s first bikepacking trip. The load was heavy and the pace slow but
the Camino made it a pleasure. Even with the entire load the Camino remains
agile and responsive to both steering and pedalling inputs.



With your weight in the centre of the bike the Camino feels incredibly stable

(Image credit: Future)

Once evening came I unloaded the bags, tweaked the tyre pressure and headed out
onto the technical trails I’d usually ride on my mountain bike. It’s no secret
that the geometry of the Camino has been influenced by MTB geometry and it
shows. With your weight in the middle of the bike, it’s incredibly stable and
easy to manoeuvre on twisty and rocky trails, limited only by the size of the
tyres.

The next morning I was out solo once again, this time for a tempo session on the
road. The Camino is never going to be as quick as a more race-biased gravel bike
but it does a perfectly good job. It’s responsive to pedalling efforts whether
you’re spinning along or out the saddle. If I was planning a lot of tarmac on a
ride I’d consider swapping the tyres for something narrower for a little less
drag.



There are plenty of mounts for bikepacking bags

(Image credit: Future)

And onto my final ride of that weekend, I was loaded up and ready for part two
of the family ride where we headed the long gravelly way back. By now I was
carrying a lot of fatigue as well as luggage, so I really appreciated the
comfort of the wide tyres and titanium frame. There’s another pleasing benefit
of the titanium frame if you’re considering bike luggage and that’s the
knowledge that you’ve got no paint or carbon layers to wear away with your bags.
This saves a lot of time and frustration adding tape to numerous parts of your
bike to protect it from the straps.

Many riders love them but personally I never really got on with the flared
Bomber bars as I missed the width on the top of the bar for both riding and
fitting in a large bar bag. If you feel similarly, Sonder’s build selector
provides a standard drop bar option in a couple of widths for no additional
cost.


VALUE

For a titanium-framed bike with a full Rival AXS drivetrain, £3,199 is already
an excellent price. If you consider the enjoyment factor and the range of gravel
riding you get to do, then its value exponentially increases.
