Road

Made to cross countries and continents via all kinds of roads and trackways... The Beyond 1 serves as the perfect first bike for fledgling adventurists. With tires as wide as a mountain bike accompanied by a 28 / 40T chainset, this bike will be able to reach wherever you’ve plotted on the map. Leverage-boosting bars provide added control, and an eye-watering selection of mounting points mean you won’t need to leave anything at home. Its simplicity makes it easy to service, too.

This bike will take you further. Designed with the support of our family of field testers, the Beyond 2 is the natural evolution of the Beyond 1. Tried and tested fast-rolling wheels, multiple mounting points, and a range of gears remain. A Supernova dynamo lighting system joins the bike’s features, so you never have to charge your batteries – ideal for excursions that go that little bit further. And at the front, a demi-porteur rack supports more cargo space that doesn’t compromise steering and handling. A new version of our continent-crossing adventure tourer with a specification based on feedback from users in the field.

Which to choose: speed or storage space? You can have both with a Hook. With an able steel frame and carbon fork, this bike is fast and versatile. Size-matched 650B or 700C wheels across the sizes provide control and comfort, while the Shimano GRX groupset and double crankset give you a close ratio with a broad range of gears. Take your pick from a range of fixing points, including a direct mount for a top tube bag, triple cage mounts, rear rack and fender. Or, leave it stripped back and fly. The Hook might have been designed as a gravel racer, but that doesn’t stop it from also being a perfect tourer, commuter, or even summer-season crossbike.

Are you heading down the path least travelled? For a drop handlebar bike, the Hook EXT seldom faces terrain it cannot handle. A Columbus steel frame, a dedicated carbon fork and a sturdy 27.5’’ wheelset equip the EXT with an armoury to ride where other bikes would surely suffer. A Sram 1x11 Rival groupset suitably gives this machine the gears and brakes to match. As capable on backcountry campouts as it is on post-work blasts, the Hook EXT remains the choice when you’re unsure of the terrain, but know you want to have fun riding it.

The versatile Hook EXT TI distils the rough-and-ready yet comfortable nature of the Hook collection. Light and responsive, the titanium frame partners alongside a V2 carbon fork with triple cage mounts, as well as a multitude of luggage configurations for added cargo options. Fitted with Shimano’s latest electronic GRX Di2 groupset, a double crankset provides close-ratios but a wide range. Making tubeless set-up easy, its lightweight WTB EZR rims and fast rolling WTB Ranger TCS Light tyres provide excellent speed and traction across mixed conditions. This agile adventure bike is the perfect companion for technical backcountry raids.

With the ability to carry serious loads, triple mounts on the forks and three separate bottle cage fixings allow you to carry as much as you need with you. The Hook EXT C comes complete with a carbon frame and V2 carbon fork with triple cage mounts for speedier off-road raids. Sram provides the bike's 10 – 42T XD cassette for a great range of gears, so you can keep the pace high over whichever surface you decide to tear across. Our friends at Hunt handle the hoops, providing the bike with a tubeless-ready Adventure Sport 27.5" wheelset. Finished with head-turning tan-wall WTB Venture tires, onlookers will have to be quick if they want to catch a glimpse as you fly through the undergrowth. It comes in this year's glossy metallic black colorway, too.

The Search XR Carbon pushes the limits of what you'd expect from a drop bar bike. With its ample tire clearance, rack, fender and bottle mounts, and lightweight carbon frame, the Search XR thrives off the beaten path and opens every ride up to whatever road and trail your heart desires. Explore singletrack, tackle a road or gravel loop, or even head out for an extended bike-packing excursion. The Search XR is up for whatever adventures you can imagine, and even those you don't even know about yet. - Full carbon frame with stable, capable rough road geometry is light yet durable - Full carbon fork with tapered steer tube features lots of tire clearance and mounts for everything - Shimano GRX hydraulic brakes RIDER BENEFITS: - CARBON FRAME & FORK: The Search XR's lightweight carbon frame features size-scaled tubing that tunes frame compliance to the needs of every rider. Fatiguing vibrations are damped by curved and ovalized seatstays, bent chainstays, thinned seat tube and top tube and optimized fork blade design. - DESIGNED FOR ADVENTURE: Designed to excel on rougher surfaces, Search XR geometry is a little slacker and longer than conventional road bikes, creating a stable ride. - EFFICIENT FRAME: Front and rear 12mm thru axles plus an oversized head tube junction, downtube, BB shell and chainstays deliver lateral stiffness for maximum power transfer as well as control through rough terrain. - INTERNAL CABLE ROUTING: Internal cable routing with adaptable port covers keeps cables tight and secure and prevents water from entering the frame. The Search XR is also compatible with a wide range of configurations such as 1x or 2x drivetrains in either Di2 or mechanical and is accommodating a stealth dropper post. - TIRE CLEARANCE: Generous tire clearance lets you customize your Search XR to the type of ride that best suits you, or the ride your planning on any given day. Larger tires provide more comfort and control on paved surfaces, and greater traction on off-road or gravel excursions. - ACCESSORY MOUNTS: Multiple bottle cage mounts on the frame and fork, custom removable fender bridge mount, and stealth rack and fender mounting points expand the Search XR's versatility.

A racing bike with the lowest drag ever tested on a UCI-legal ride. More speed with less effort. Simple as that. Stem spacers open so that you can adjust stem height without needing to pull cables. Disc specific design allowed for aerodynamic optimization of the frame and fork and a wheel/tire choice that would not have been possible with rim brakes. Unique design routes brake lines and Di2 cables through an opening in the front of the headtube, bypassing headset bearings. An integrated steering stop prevents damage to the cables and permits a full +/- 50 degrees of steering rotation (regular riding rarely sees more than 35 degrees of movement). - BallisTec carbon frame and fork - Vision SC55 carbon clincher wheelset - 11-speed Shimano Ultegra components - Vision Metreon 4D Flat UD carbon handlebars - Vision Trimax carbon stem - Cannondale HollowGram 60 KNOT carbon seatpost - Shimano Ultegra hydraulic disc brakes
