If you’re looking for your best entry point to gravel riding on a handmade aluminium gravel bike curated for fun with an affordable price tag then look no further: GT’s Grade Expert comes with floating stays, an iconic Triple Triangle frame, full carbon forks, and Shimano groupset. For road, for gravel, for all your cycling adventures, the alloy Grade Expert is the bike for you.
Floating Stays - All-day rideability More vertical compliance on both aluminum and carbon models than the previous generation of Grade for a more comfortable time in the saddle, no matter the terrain.
Removable Fender Bridge - Keep the skid marks on the trail.
Flatmount Brakes - Grade Alloy is native 140mm rear and 160mm front.
Mounting Points Galore - All the frame and fork mounts for all the bags and bottles you need for a long tour. The Grade comes with top tube feed bag bosses and fork leg “anything cage” bosses. The alloy frame even has bottle bosses on the Seat Stays, that’s pretty unique!
Tire Clearance - All Grades are spec’d with 37c width tires, but can easily accommodate up to 42mm measured clearance.
