CANNONDALE TOPSTONE 2 GRAVEL BIKE 2021
With a dedicated gravel groupset and a host of handy mounting points, the Canondale Topstone 2 Gravel Bike is an adventure-ready option that boasts huge versatility. At the heart of this bike, you'll find a SmartForm C2 Alloy frame with BallisTec Carbon fork; this combination of lightweight handling and durable construction lends itself to the rigours of long days off the beaten track.
The Shimano GRX 400 groupset combines with an FSA Omega AGX+ sub-compact chainset to provide an excellent range of gears that shift instantly and smoothly. The rear derailleur features a clever clutch mechanism to prevent chain slap while riding over rough ground, and the hydraulic disc brakes deliver consistent braking in wet or dry conditions.
Carry a luggage rack, attach mudguards and load on some extra bottles thanks to the abundance of handy mounts around the frame and fork, making this a seriously capable option for bike packing. The WTB tyres and tubes are tubeless ready, so you can run them at lower pressure for even more comfort too.
