Pro-Level Gravel Racer

Flowingly fast and astonishingly agile, the Gravel SL blurs the lines between everyday off-road explorer and race-ready gravel crusher. In Pro specification, the superlight Gravel SL is paired with SRAM’s Force XPLR AXS wireless electronic groupset, versatile Mavic Cosmic S 42 carbon wheels, and chunky 40 mm Pirelli Gravel RC tyres with a Selle Italia Novus Boost saddle. The integrated aerodynamic carbon cockpit rounds out this pro-level package.

Groupset

Force XPLR AXS continues to push the boundaries of what is possible with electronic shifting. This market-leading system is entirely cable-free and offers a wide gear range with closer progression for a more fluid shifting experience. Smooth, accurate shifting, easy personalisation, superior braking power, and modulation of hydraulic disc brakes provide many hours of trouble-free riding pleasure.

Groupset

Wheelset

Mavic’s lightweight and tubeless-ready Mavic Cosmic S 42 wheels ride faster and smoother on rough roads, dirt, and gravel. Lightweight yet robust, they are the perfect choice for off-road rambles, bike-packing trips and epic gravel escapes - paired with a 40 mm Pirelli Cinturato Gravel RC tyre, designed to compete at some of the world’s most prestigious gravel races. Featuring a fast-rolling running surface and improved lateral grip for cornering off-road, this tyre performs at the highest level.

Handlebars

The latest evolution in cockpit integration, the LEVEL 5 carbon gravel handlebar system, has been developed explicitly for off-road riding with gravel-specific ergonomics, providing enhanced comfort and control on even the roughest gravel tracks. Super-strong and stiff, this one-piece carbon cockpit enables each cable to be entirely hidden for seamless cable-free aesthetics and a significant drag reduction compared to a conventional handlebar setup. Wrapped in a vibration-absorbing LEVEL embossed bar tape.

Saddle

A superlight and aerodynamic SL Carbon seat post paired with a lightweight, supportive, and comfortable Selle Italia Novus Boost Evo saddle improves pedalling ergonomics, manoeuvrability, and performance.
