The Devote Advanced is your go-to for going fast, wherever the gravel muse may call you. Balancing speed and ruggedness, this versatile bike is ready for race day, rest day, and multi-day adventures. Features: Ultralight Agility: An ultralight Advanced-grade composite frame and fork make for snappy acceleration, while internal cable routing streamlines your cockpit and makes room for your must-have accessories. And the redesigned geometry puts you in a more aggressive position, increases traction and stability, and allows more control at speed and on descents. Superior Compliance and Control: The Contact XR D-Fuse handlebar features a 5-degree back sweep and flare drop for comfortable and ergonomic grip. Select models also feature the Contact D-Fuse seatpost and one is equipped with a dropper post. Or swap out for your preferred set-up. These proprietary D-Fuse components absorb bumps and reduce vibrations, ensuring less fatigue and more fun on those epic rides. Unmatched Versatility: Adapt to the route with the flip chip – dropout, which lets you adjust your wheelbase length and rear-wheel tire clearance. Go shorter for responsive handling and quick acceleration. Go longer for added stability plus clearance for larger tires and extra traction. Plus, the integrated down tube storage lets you stash a multi-tool or extra fuel, so nothing’s slowing you down.
