The Details
If you want the world's lightest gravel bike, then you'll need the S-Works Crux. The Crux is both exceptionally light but super capable too with massive tire clearance and gravel-specific geometry. Thanks to the FACT 12r carbon construction, the S-Works frame weighs just 725g.
The latest Crux takes learnings from the ground-breaking Aethos such as the unique tube shapes. This, therefore, means the Crux can climb at speed and float over the harsh terrain with ease.
S-Works Crux doesn't hold back on top-notch components either. Sram's latest and greatest Red XPLR eTap AXS hydraulic groupset features on this gravel bike along with the super durable Roval Terra CLX wheels. The Roval wheels are then fitted with Pathfinder Pro 38mm wide tyres to help you breeze over nasty terrain.
Crux is also famed for being super agile and nimble and the latest generation is no different. It's responsive at the pedal and supple in the saddle. This is in part thanks to its performance gravel and race-inspired geometry.
