Whether your goal is to escape on gravel back roads far from cars and crowds or drop the hammer at the front of your favorite gravel race no bike does it better than the new Diverge. It’s quite simply the fastest most capable - and just maybe the most fun - bike we’ve ever made delivering a ride that’s quick and lively under power but stable and confidence inspiring when the terrain gets rough. From Future Shock 2.0 and all-new gravel geometry to internal storage and category leading tire clearance the new Diverge represents everything we’ve learned over more than 40 years of riding road gravel and dirt. The Diverge writes an entirely new chapter in the gravel bike category so you can dream up entirely new rides. It’s the ultimate getaway vehicle. The Diverge Comp Carbon features the same game changing FACT 9r Carbon frame and Future Shock 2.0 as our Pro build but spec’d with SRAM’s mechanical shifting Rival 1 1x11 gravel group. Alloy DT Swiss G540 wheels keep you rolling efficiently while Kanza winning Pathfinder Pro 42mm tires deliver performance across smooth pavement dirt roads and gravel tracks. To give the Diverge Comp a perfectly balanced ride we spec Roval’s Terra seat post. With a FACT 9r carbon frame the Diverge Expert frame is incredible capable and race bike light. Pin it for your local dirt climb KOM or grind up a giant back country peak the light and lively Diverge will get you there faster. Speed control and confidence - Future Shock 2.0 is the ultimate technology for the gravel rider. With 20mm of axial compliance and a hydraulic damper Future Shock 2.0 suspends the rider not the bike. This keeps you confident and in control able to keep the power down and stay off the brakes over rough dirt roads and in thick loose gravel all while keeping your hands arms and neck fresh. Since Future Shock 2.0’s damper is adjustable you’ll be ready for the rough stuff and efficient on smooth pavement. We tossed gravel geometry ‘status-quo’ out the window. The new Diverge has the most progressive geometry we’ve ever created for a drop bar bike giving riders a capable and stable bike in the dirt that still feels responsive and nimble on the road. We’ve increased the frame’s reach introduced a slacker head tube and a longer offset fork. All this creates incredible confidence with a planted feeling in the dirt while spec’ing shorter stems keeps the overall cockpit length the same and the steering lively. We’ve kept the bike’s BB low to increase stability but high enough to utilize with 650b wheels if that’s your jam. We’ve given the Diverge plenty of rack mounts including fork and top tube mounts to ensure you can take what you need no matter how far you plan to go or how long you plan to stay out. Nothing unlocks a bike’s capability like tire clearance so we gave the new Diverge a whopping 47mm of tire clearance with a 700c wheel and 2.1” with a 650b wheel. Thanks to a drive side chain stay utilizing a solid beam of carbon behind the chain rings we’ve created clearance without using a fragile dropped chain stay design or increasing chain stay length. The more capable your bike the bigger your rides get so Diverge borrows SWAT internal storage from the legendary Stumpy. The SWAT door lets you utilize space in the down tube to store tools a flat kit nutrition and even our SWAT Jacket. It keeps weight off your body low in the bike for better handling and makes you more self-sufficient so get out there. SWAT’s got your back.

The Crux is the lightest gravel bike in the world, with the exceptional capability of massive tyre clearance and performance gravel geometry.It’s not just hte ultimate expression of gravel performance, it’s your one-way ticket to gravel enlightenment.Crux is where Performance meets Speed.The methodology that made the 585g Aethos a reality turned out to be a perfect application to deliver the same performance characteristics to the Crux platform. This has created an ultralight bike with massive clearance - truly unlocking gravel performance.The tyre clearance of 700 x 47c.650b x 2.1 doesn’t come with either the solid beam chainstay of the Diverge or the dropped stay other platforms use. The Crux’s straight-shot, hollow drive-side chainstay allows for the whole package to be light and elegant, whilst still allowing for both 1x and 2x cranksets.Crux is for the rider who wants an ultralight, race inspired bike to go fast, whether on gravel or the cross course. The Crux has performance gravel geometry with a race influenced fit inspired by Crux’s history in cross racing. The whole bike functions as an ecosystem, an incredibly light frame paired with a compliant seatpost for a supple in the saddle feeling. This combined with the tube shapes & extra plies that were learned from Aethos, and you’ve got a system that works together to bring a deft, nimble ride feeling.Performance Gravel Geometry creates the feeling of being “in” the bike for incredible confidence whilst still feeling quick and nimble at the bars. A 10mm longer reach allows for ideal weight distribution, eliminates toe overlap and uses a shorter stem for more responsive steering. The low stack reinforces optimal weight distribution and is ideal for an aggressive fit, while the 72mm BB drop creates a low and confident feel whilse ensuring the bike remains nimble for quick line adjustments and tight, fast tracks.Key Bike AttributesLightweight - Crux is the lightest gravel bike on the marketCapable - Frame clears a 700 x 47C or 650b x 2.1” tyreResponsive - Crux is nimble, supple & reactiveAll Crux Models Include:Up to 700 x 47c/650b x 2.1” Tyre Clearance1x or 2x Frameset Compatibility10mm Longer Reach Low Stack - Performance-First Fit72mm DropThreaded BB27.2mm seat post with external clamp
