Giant Revolt Advanced Pro 1

Gravel cycling, like the peasants, is in revolt. As the pendulum of bike fashion swings wildly from one extreme to the other, bike makers are falling over themselves trying to decide if gravel riding necessitates a road bike with abnormally large tyres or a mountain bike with strange curly handlebars. Just maybe, there is no right answer.

Designed, according to Giant’s David Ward, to be ‘as adaptable as possible’ for a world where ‘people’s needs for a gravel bike are changing rapidly’, the new Revolt Advanced Pro is the lightest yet, its frameset saving a claimed 200g over its already respectably light predecessor.
