They Say...
One of the first gravel-specific bikes released, the Curve GXR model has been around since well before gravel became cool. Now, with wider tyre clearance, improved mounting options and UDH compatibility, the latest version of our Swiss Army Knife of bikes is more versatile than ever.
We have been ahead of the Curve when it comes to gravel, and the GXR has years of adventure cycling experience woven into its DNA. The Curve titanium GXR has been tested heavily on gravel adventures worldwide. Across South America, New Zealand, Switzerland, Swaziland, and more, the Curve squad has traversed the globe on this magnificent bicycle.
Originally a playful jab at the bike industry's bike naming terminologies, the name “Kevin” soon caught on, and we couldn’t resist making it official. Kevin, the reliable Aussie all-rounder, is here to stay as a permanent nickname for our beloved GXR.
