Cervelo Aspero GRX 610 Gravel Bike Woodsmoke, 56

Cervelo’s Aspero GRX 610 Gravel Bike is our top choice for a mixed-terrain racing machine with carbon construction, road-like geometry, and improved compliance. This versatile frame is built for speed with a geometry similar to that of a road bike but is adapted for use on gravel roads to keep us riding fast without sacrificing riding comfort. Featuring a longer top tube, shorter stem, and a steep head tube angle, along with a centered reach, our stability on technical terrain is improved with the reduction of toe overlap and optimal center of gravity. With this Aspero, we ride on Shimano’s new 2 x 12-speed GRX drivetrain, a gravel-specific setup that provides efficient shifting, trustworthy braking, and a smooth ride over mixed terrain. The combination of 46/30t chainrings and an 11-36t cassette ensure we always have the proper gear to climb any hill, descend with max power, and sprint to any finish line while the hydraulic disc brakes stop on a dime with unmatched control thanks to the anti-slip coating on the GRX brake levers. With this gravel-optimized groupset and the fast-rolling combination of the WTB Vulpine tires and Alexrims Boondocks 7D wheelset, we will be a force to be reckoned with on the starting line.
