Campagnolo Levante 2-Way Fit Carbon Gravel WheelsetFeaturing a high-quality carbon fibre rim construction with a variety of performance-enhancing technologies, Campagnolo's first all-gravel wheelset makes its debut. Famous for its craftmanship on road and track wheels, Campagnolo has applied its expertise to the gravel market. The Levante wheelset is reactive, versatile and durable they are made for Point and Shoot handling. Levante, is named after the Easterly wind of the Mediterranean and brings a host of proven Campagnolo technologies to the gravel scene.Gravel Wheelset with Handmade Ultra-Light Carbon RimsStiff for climbing, light for handling and compliant for descending, Levante benefits from Campagnolo's Handmade Ultra-Light Carbon (H.U.L.C) which is used in the rim construction and is the result of extensive development over decades of in-house carbon fibre moulding. This enables Campagnolo's engineers to optimise the usage of both fibre and bonding resin for the perfect blend of strength, stiffness and lightweight. All of this combines to create an awe-inspiring ride feel without undue harshness and a wheelset that weighs in at just 1485g.The Levante rim sports the beautiful mirror-like finish aptly named Campagnolo Luxury (C-LUX). This finish is so pristinely smooth that it doesn't require any additional lacquer, saving valuable grams across the wheelset. The Levante pairs this stunning finish with durable laser-etched rim graphics capable of withstanding even the most demanding of gravel rides.Campagnolo's consideration for durability is deeply rooted in the Levante Wheelset, and the premium H.U.L.C construction combined with an asymmetric offset on the rim provides a strong and balanced wheel that can take the rough with the smooth. A simple cup and cone hub system meanwhile ensures ease of servicing and external nipples allow for tool-free on-the-go spoke tensioning if needed.Two-Way Fit Technology for Tubeless and ClincherNot only is the Levante wheelset durable but it's versatile too. Campagnolo's two-way fit rim profile ensures tubeless and clincher compatibility while the 25mm internal rim width can accommodate 38mm to 78mm tyres (1.5-3.0”).The wheelset's Mini-Hook has been designed specifically for the Levante rim and matches the E.T.R.T.O Clincher and Tubeless requirements using the most minimal dimension possible. As a result, the slight hook provides a perfect match between the tyre and rim. This means a large contact area with the terrain, increasing grip and comfort at lower pressures.Campagnolo's Next 3 Ways (N3W) option is compatible with Campagnolo 11, 12 and 13-speed cassettes. The wheelset is also available with freehub bodies for Shimano HG and SRAM XDR (please choose the option from the menu).

The Bont Vaypor G sets a new benchmark for high-performance gravel cycling shoes. To meet the demand of the growing gravel scene, the Vaypor G uses a unidirectional carbon chassis, heat moldable fit and grippy sole to delivery incredible performance on and off the bike.Unidirectional carbon sole is designed for maximum performance at a class leading weightDurolite upper is light and durable, while faux suede leather liner improves comfortDual BOA retention system allows for easy, consistent adjustmentFully heat moldable chassis allows you to get the perfect fitReplaceable Grip Plate sole designed to maximise grip in dirt and muddy conditionsFrom the outset, Bont designed the Vaypor G to be the best Gravel shoe you can buy. The Vaypor G uses a stiff unidirectional carbon sole with a slim 3.6mm stack height to offer maximum performance. The replaceable Grip Plate sole is designed to maximise grip in dirty and muddy conditions, while also shedding mud and trail debris with ease.Gravel shoes are likely to see a lot more abuse than a road cycling shoe, so Bont has utilised a light but tough anti-stretch Durolite upper that is incredibly durable and built to last. Memory foam padding and a faux suede leather liner improve comfort over long distances, so the Vaypor G can remain comfortable on the longest and roughest of gravel rides. Further emphasising the built to last ethos is the replaceable Grip Plate sole, so if this wears out you can easily replace it.Fit on any cycle shoe is important, and Bont have equipped the Vaypor G with a fully heat moldable chassis so you can ensure you have the perfect personalised fit just for you. With the fit sorted you'll want to make sure the shoes stay put and thanks to the use of a Dual BOA retention system, you can be sure the Vaypor G is going nowhere, even under hard, out of the saddle sprints and climbs. Durable, stiff, and comfortable, the Bont Vaypor G is the ultimate shoe for gravel riders who can't live with compromise.Size Chart:
The ADV 8.9 might just be the best value for money bike we have ever made, given that it’s essentially 2 bikes for the price of 1. It’s equally at home exploring hidden bridleways and fire roads as it is clocking up miles on potholed commutes or long sportives.A triple-butted 6061 aluminium frame with hidden welds, and a full carbon fork with tapered steerer, with thru-axles at both ends, make up the heart of the bike. Blending comfort and control without compromising efficiency or sacrificing precise handling – this is an ideal platform to build the perfect all-road bike around.The ADV takes inspiration from the MTB world with its geometry – trail bikes have become more capable as top tubes have got longer and slacker, and this is passed onto the ADV. We’ve kept the top tubes long and slackened the head angle versus our road bikes, which gives a confidence-inspiring ride on loose surfaces, but without compromising body position for road riding. A slightly taller front end and a shortened stem keep the bars close to hand and sharpen up steering response.Shimano’s 2x10 speed GRX adventure bike groupset has a wide range of gears with a 48-32 FSA chainset and 11-36 cassette, perfect for steep climbs. The GRX hydraulic brake levers are designed to offer better power braking from the tops and are fitted to a flared handlebar that is wider at the bottom than the top, giving great control when you’re descending on the drops. With 38mm Schwalbe G-One tubeless-ready tyres, there’s plenty of fast-rolling grip available too.Completing the package are mounts for full-length mudguards and a pannier rack, adding the versatility for commuting, touring or winter road riding on top of the off-road smiles the ADV 8.9 delivers.Light but strong aluminium frame and tapered carbon fork give great comfort and control on and off-road,10 Speed Shimano GRX groupset is designed specifically for adventure riding with wide gear range and a “clutch” rear mech to limit chain slap,Powerful Shimano Hydraulic disc brakes ensure maximum control in all conditions,Schwalbe G-One All Round 38mm tyres combine off-road grip, low rolling resistance and added comfort – perfect for exploring anywhere,Boardman ADV wheels and Schwalbe tyres are tubeless-ready – easy to upgrade to run without tubes,Mudguard and pannier rack mounts offer additional flexibility.
