The CruX is the world’s lightest gravel bike, with massive tire clearance and a geometry designed for performance and speed. Now gravel also lights up with performance and lightness. The CruX Expert features a SRAM Rival eTap AXS groupset complete with hydraulic disc brakes, light and durable Roval Terra C Disc wheels, and 700x38 Pathfinder Pro 2Bliss Ready tires.
- Lightweight - The 825-gram FACT 10r frame is inspired by our lightest bike yet, the Aethos. The result is a gravel bike that climbs with agility, breezes through nightmare terrain, and weighs less than a full water bottle.
- Capacity - It can fit up to a 47c or 650b x 2.1" tire. Tire clearance is the same as our Diverge, allowing the CruX to take you anywhere at full speed.
- Responsiveness - The new CruX is agile and responsive. The new performance gravel geometry features a racing position in keeping with the CruX tradition in cyclocross racing.

A Complete Guide to Bike Sizes
Foreword: Not all bike sizes are the same
Each type of bike has a specific frame and often uses a different size scale. For example, a road bike with a 54cm frame might be considered a medium size by one brand, but a large by another.
Bicycle adjustment margins
Some types of bikes, like gravel bikes, offer a wide range of adjustments, adapting to different body types. Other models, however, have limitations in this regard. This is an important aspect to consider.
How to use size charts
We've created a simple guide to help you find the right bike size:
- Check out our size charts for each bike type.
- Learn more with specific tips to help you make the right choice.
