GRAVEL BIKES: WHAT TO KNOW AND HOW TO CHOOSE


5 WAYS GRAVEL BIKES WILL FOREVER CHANGE YOUR BIKING EXPERIENCE

The bike market in the US is worth roughly $6 billion.

Bikes are a great way to get around while also exercising and lowering your
environmental impact. But if you're just getting into cycling it can be
overwhelming trying to decide between all of the different types of bikes.

That's why today we're going to talk about some of the best bikes available:
gravel bikes. Getting a gravel bike is a great choice for anyone who wants the
freedom to tackle any terrain: whether it be gravel, paved roads, or soft forest
paths.

In this post, we'll go over what exactly gravel bikes are and some of the ways
they will completely change how you look at biking. Keep reading to learn more.


WHAT ARE GRAVEL BIKES?

Gravel bikes are bikes that have drop handlebars, like a normal road bike, and
are designed to allow you to ride over a variety of different surface materials.
They have the features necessary for both on-road riding as well as off-road
riding.

This is great if you're trying to go on a ride that includes different terrains,
as they can handle road, gravel, forest, anything really. This means you don't
have to worry about getting off of your road bike when you hit a section of
gravel, as these bikes can handle both with ease. That's only one of the many
benefits of gravel bikes though, here are some others:


1. VERSATILITY

We already touched a little on this, but the impressiveness of a gravel bike's
versatility can't be overstated. You can take them on almost any kind of trail.
With the only exception being super technical mountain biking trails.

This allows you to plot rides that include routes with mixed terrain. You can
even comfortably take them on longer trips, as they are comfortable and have
ample space to mount your gear and accessories.

If you're looking to be an elite racer, this is not the bike for you. But if
you're looking for a well-rounded, everyday bike that can handle pretty much
whatever you throw at it, look no further.


2. TIRE OPTIONS

Another great thing about gravel bikes is that they're not limited on what tires
you can put on them as you might be with the average road bike. You can put
wider wheels and tires on without worrying about the tire clearance or brake
calipers.

If you're going on extra rough or softer surfaces, you can put on knobby tires
that have a bit of extra grip that will give you the traction you need. For
gravel or other rough terrains, you'll usually want slightly wider gravel bike
tires because they add more stability and comfort.

You can also use these tires on the road as long as you're not looking to be
super speedy. If you do decide you want to be a little faster on the road, you
can easily switch out the tires for thinner, faster road tires.


3. BETTER HANDLING

Because of the design of gravel bikes, they tend to handle better than many
other bike options on uneven surfaces. Their long wheelbase, flared drop bars,
wide tires, and slacker head tube makes gravel bikes overall more stable and
steady.

The flared drop bars are a particularly important feature that can help you to
handle tight turns and sticky situations. This is because the broader width of
the handlebars provides a more natural hand position for the rider. It's also
especially helpful for descending hills with sketchy terrain.

Additionally, they're well-designed so that the steering won't be thrown off
even when you load up with accessories and gear. These bikes are also better
able to take more abuse from rough trails since they are designed for the
rougher terrain.


4. THE PERFECT ADVENTURE BIKE

Gravel bikes make for the perfect adventure bikes. They're more comfortable for
longer rides than most other bike styles. This is because of the more relaxed,
upright position that their design puts the rider in, as well as because the
frames and seat posts are made so that you don't feel every little vibration and
bump in the road.

Because of the versatility of a gravel bike, you will be able to handle any
surface that your adventure takes you on. Also as mentioned, these bikes can
handle plenty of gear while staying stable.

You can choose a bike that comes with built-in mounts, which means your gear
will stay secure and won't be at risk of falling off or flapping around during
your ride. You also won't risk damaging the bike itself with additional mounts
that you attach yourself.

With a gravel bike, you'll be ready to go on many adventures and reach any
cycling resolutions you've set.


5. DESIGN OPTIONS

Like most bikes today, gravel bikes come in carbon or aluminum. Aluminum is
affordable, durable and relatively lightweight. Carbon gravel bikes are the
lightest on the market and can be engineered to provide the right amount of
stiffness and comfort. What material you want will depend on what your budget
is.

You can also choose other additional features like increased suspension, dropper
seat posts, or even make it an electric gravel bike instead.


BUY A GRAVEL BIKE TODAY

From their versatility to the opportunity for adventure, gravel bikes can
revolutionize the way you look at biking. If you're looking for a bike that can
take you from forest paths to city streets, you should consider choosing a
gravel bike.
