Description
A robust handcrafted Reynolds 725 steel frame and carbon forks tuned for exploration ensure a super-smooth ride quality you can enjoy on any off-grid route your imagination can conjure. In Sport specification, the Gravel 725 is paired with SRAM’s Apex XPLR groupset, robust Mavic Allroad 1 wheels, and burly 45 mm Pirelli Cinturato tyres with a Selle Italia X3 Boost saddle.
Groupset
When you want your bike to do everything, you need the gears to match. Apex XPLR hits the sweet spot, offering smooth jumps over a big gear range, with the added security and simplicity of a 1x drivetrain and the quiet confidence of hydraulic braking. Rapid and reliable, the wide-range gearing gives you the freedom to go full-gas on gravel, bikepacking into the unknown or enjoy a casual cruise.
Wheelset
Designed to enhance the ride-anywhere attitude of any gravel machine, Mavic’s gravel-dedicated Allroad 1 Disc wheels give you the confidence to tackle the toughest terrains with smooth control - paired with a Pirelli Cinturato gravel tyre, which offers the ability to adapt to the terrain without compromising rolling efficiency while delivering outstanding puncture protection and grip in wet or dry conditions.
Handlebars
LEVEL Gravel Riser handlebars have been developed specifically for the gravel scene, with a 20mm rise offering multiple hand positions and more space on the bars for a bar bag. Flared drops provide a wider, more stable stance for improved handling and steering control when descending or navigating technical terrain. Wrapped in cushioned LEVEL bar tape for improved hand comfort and neatly matched with a LEVEL alloy stem.
Saddle
A lightweight LEVEL alloy seat post fitted with an ergonomic Selle Italia X3 saddle provides riders with the outstanding comfort and support they need to explore every beatup backroad or gravel trail.
