Meet the Curve GXR (aka Kevin) - The do-it-all gravel adventure bike.

Curve have taken the racing pedigree and fun loving attitude of a CX bike, and thrown in flavours of their explorative heritage to create this one bike to CONQUER all! The best bit - here at G!RO, we can help you become the pilot of this incredible machine, jumping on board for the ride!

Double the Wheel Choice

Arm your Kevin with the wheel size to meet your needs! Run either 700c wheels with 28 road tires, through to 45mm mud slingers for anything Road, Gravel or Cyclocross based, or spice things up with HellCat mode and equip Kevin with 650b (27.5”) wheels that can run 1.8–2.2” tires. This gives you a versatile frame that can easily morph between genre's and disciplines!

Custom Machined Yoke

Thanks to Curve's incredible engineer Liam, this bike features a rather nifty feature, that involved many hours swearing at a computer, to perfect. Kevin features a custom yoke design to create space for super wide gravel tyres in two wheel sizes, whilst also enhancing stiffness of the BB area, removing any frame flex under load.

Adventure Ready

Kevin is down for whatever. Race him round the local CX or load him up for weeks on the road... The GXR features; rear rack mounts, fender mounts & an additional bidon mount; for bike packers! You can spec it with eTap, Di2 or mechanical drivetrains, that utilise either 1x or 2x technology. As previously mentioned, a range of tire options sit underneath a longer wheel base to provide a sutiably stable cruising platform. Making him perfect for day trips, weekenders or long multi day tours. Just remember to strip him off and race him round some CX loops from time to time too!

GEOMETRY - Kevin is not like other bikes

Kevin's special, with some interesting features engineered into his geometry! Kev's geo is a little longer and a little taller to create more space for frame packs and big bidons for the adventurers out there. Kevin is optimised to be ridden with a shorter stem and wider drop bars to make him a handling expert when terrain gets tricky.

Gravel bikes feature a fairly different geo to your traditional road bike geo, so the numbers on the chart above could well blow your mind. Luckily we have some very clever Curve experts here to help you out - just drop us a line! As a rule of thumb though, a Medium Kev will be equivalent to a standard 54cm frame.
