Description
With the Backroad AL GRX RX600 EQ, you can master rough terrains, such as gravel or dirt roads. The bike is also great at higher speeds on asphalt.
Equipped with the high-quality SHIMANO GRX RX600 gravel shift group and 2-speed drivetrain, this bike is ideal for versatile gravel tours that require smaller gear jumps and a wider range. Thanks to its wide, versatile ROSE G THIRTY gravel wheels, wrapped in Continental all-road tyres and with a traditional road handlebar, the Backroad AL EQ can certainly eat miles – whether during commutes or little gravel adventures at the weekend.
More versatility
Doesn’t matter if you’re getting some single-trail action, commuting through the city, or on a bike-packing adventure. Kick it into high gear, go gravel, and experience freedom at its best: the aluminium gravel bike Backroad AL makes it all possible. Where will the next great adventure take you?
More adventure
No adventure is too big! Thanks to gravel-specific geometry and well-designed features such as the downtube protector and countless attachment points for bottle holders, Anything Cages, or bags, the Backroad AL is the perfect companion for outdoor adventures. Max propulsion down the trail with a tyre clearance of up to 47 mm with 650b wheels or 45 mm with 700c wheels – all great qualities for lots of off-roading fun.
More design
With the Backroad AL you’ll always look good on the bike. Whether you’re on the way to work or on a gravel track. Show off that ultimate two-wheel swag thanks to the beautiful frame design in carbon-look with smooth seams, clear lines, and a super-clean cockpit, which offers full integration of cables and hoses.
