MEN'S 28-INCH GRAVEL BIKE JB-02 WITH 1x11-SPEED SRAM APEX 1

The high-end JB-02 gravel bike is for cyclists who want a sporty bike without compromising on comfort or reliability.

A good foundation is essential for a gravel bike to be considered solid. The JB-02 meets this requirement! Its frameset is made of chromium-molybdenum steel, specifically seamless-drawn 25CrMo4 tubing. Chromoly steel is a high-tensile-strength alloy that offers an excellent balance of weight and stability. The chromoly frame absorbs vibration better than an aluminum frame and provides precise, comfortable handling.

The bike is equipped with high-quality Ritchey components and a complete 1x11-speed SRAM Apex 1 groupset.

On asphalt and off-road, the Apex 1 shifts reliably up and down. Double-Tap technology lets you shift between gears with short movements and minimal effort. The hydraulic disc brakes offer good modulation and a firm bite point.

To provide plenty of grip on both paved roads and gravel paths without sacrificing speed, the JB-02 comes with versatile 35 mm Schwalbe G-One gravel tires. The cream-brown tire sidewalls add a retro look. The JB-02 frame and fork have room for high-volume tires - tires as large as 50x622C will fit!

Subtle eyelets for mudguards and a rear rack let you turn the JB-02 gravel bike into a sporty touring bike or commuter bike. The frame has three bottle-cage mounts so you can carry more “fuel” (drinking water) on your ride. You can carry extra drinks on the chromoly fork, or more luggage with an adapter or mount from an accessory retailer. A lowrider or front rack can also be fitted.

To enjoy this gravel bike for a long time and go on as many adventures as possible, all frame and fork tubes are ED-coated inside and out to protect them from corrosion. The frame and fork were then powder-coated, providing additional protection against the elements and corrosion, as well as a highly scratch- and impact-resistant finish.

Designed for longer rides, with plenty of mounting points, hydraulic disc brakes, and carefully selected components, the JB-02 gives you the confidence to ride quickly on any terrain.

This bicycle is delivered 98% assembled. Only the handlebar and pedals need to be secured. Final assembly for riding must be performed by a qualified person.
