GT GRADE CARBON PRO
If you’re searching for the best gravel bike in the game, you’ve come to the right place.
Iconic Triple Triangle carbon frame with floating stays gives you ultimate comfort on any terrain, and our Fast on road, comfortable off, the Grade Carbon Pro is the best gravel bike money can buy.
The bike was designed for adventure, and to be raced at a gran fondo, yet still get off the beaten track to ride dirt roads and gravel aided by the large volume tyres and disc brakes.
GT’s signature design is its triple triangle – which featured on its mountain bikes for decades and on its road bikes back in the nineties, such as the beautiful titanium Edge ridden by Lotto – the small triangle created by the seatstays overlapping the seat tube and meeting the top tube away from the junction.
The seatstays are the thinnest you’ll see on any current production carbon bike. Like the first Grade, these are solid in construction, not a hollow tube like most carbon tubes, but the technology is called DFD tech and it combines glass-fibres with carbon.
The smart frame design and its simplicity keep the GT Grade frame weight down to a very impressive 980g – that’s road bike territory, not gravel.
It’s all the more impressive when you consider that the frame's dimensions can carry a 42c tyre in 700c and a huge 47c in 650b.
The clutch mechanism allows the spring in the derailleur to be almost locked-out, which prevents it bouncing the chain and potentially dropping it when riding over truly rough terrain.
So the shifting is crisp and accurate, and the drivetrain doesn’t get noisy when it gets choppy – all good stuff.
