The front end on the Aspero GRX 610 1x Gravel Bike loses a touch of stiffness compared to the previous Aspero, taking the sting out of rough sections deep into a long ride, while lower seat stays add compliance out back. Extra tire and mud clearance, a direct response to watching bikes clog during the muddy 2023 race, keeps the bike moving through wet, sloppy courses. The frame also holds a modest aerodynamic edge over the outgoing Aspero, worth a little less effort across a long, exposed day. What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I've held race pace across flat, fast gravel on this build's 46-tooth chainring, one tooth size up from where GRX typically ships stock."Heads up! We do our best to keep bike specs and images current, but occasional component changes can happen without warning, and sometimes the photos might not show the exact build you'll receive.
