This Crux Expert comes equipped with the new SRAM Force XPLR AXS: smooth braking, reduced weight, and a wide 13-speed range. It’s completed with lightweight and tough Roval Terra CL Disc wheels and 700x40 mm Pathfinder Pro 2Bliss Ready tires, ideal for the most demanding terrains.

• Lighter: the 12r carbon frame weighs 725 g, and the 10r carbon frame weighs 825 g. We took the revolutionary innovations that made the Aethos the lightest bike in history and applied them to the Crux. The result? A gravel bike that climbs like a dream, floats over rough terrain, and weighs less than your filled water bottle.

• Performance: tire clearance is 47c/650b x 2.1". More clearance means more performance. With the same clearance as the Diverge, the Crux takes you anywhere at speed.

• A responsive bike: fast, agile, and reactive. Pedal-sensitive. Saddle-comfortable. With performance geometry tailored to gravel needs and a race-driven design inspired by Crux’s iconic cyclocross legacy.
