Price not negotiable - I will not respond to questions asking to sell for less than listed. ________________ Incredible value gravel bike, great condition. Bought from MEC Burlington 2022. Estimating around 1000kms on it. Just completed a full annual tune up at Bicycle Works pro shop in Waterdown (Ontario) in May 2025. Ready to ride for the next owner. Specs below. Size Small by MEC standards, but effective top tube height is 54.5cm (more like a size M). Bottle cages, flat pedals, and Shimano SPD pedals included. Also included, bike rack, and fenders in case you want to use it for your commute. Super smooth, exceptionally good shifting 1x bike (single chainring mounted to the crankset, with no front derailleur) with SRAM Rival (Shimano 105 equivalent), at a discount price. Clean derailleur and chain, and tires have plenty of tread. Steel frame (more stable than aluminium), hydraulic brakes, and through-axle front / rear wheels (better stability). Selling only because I have given up cycling. ___________ Description from the original MEC website listing: This trusty bike has a stability-focused steel frame for a smooth ride and flickable responsiveness. Light enough to hang in on group rides, it's still tough enough for the rigours of cyclocross and bikepacking. - The tire clearance and a low overall weight makes it a strong contender for bicycle touring. - The carbon fork uses a 12mm thru-axle instead of a standard QR set up, to reduce flex under hard braking, cornering and accelerating. - To keep you riding longer, we've kitted this bike with a comfortable Fizik Aliante saddle. - Solid SRAM Rival 1x groupset with hydraulic brakes shifts smoothly and gives you nuanced, powerful braking, and a stiff Alex Boondocks 5 wheelset grounds it with responsive handling and flex-free performance. - Columbus Cromor steel frame with lowered bottom bracket for stable handling - Carbon fibre fork with aluminum steerer lower the weight of the bike while improving comfort - Front fork designed for use with 12mm thru axles - Frame is equipped with eyelets for fenders, a rear rack, and 3 bottle cages for those long adventures - Frame and fork have plenty of clearance, allowing for tires that measure up to 45mm in width - SRAM Rival 1x gruppo yields fast shifts and solid braking in a lightweight package - Hydraulic disc brakes provide outstanding power and modulation regardless of weather - SRAM Centerline 160mm rotors provide plenty of stopping power - SRAM Rival crank with a 42T chainring and huge 11-42T cassette means a gear range ready for every kind of ride - 700c Alex Boondocks 5 wheels are tubeless ready and designed for the rigours of gravel grinds and daily commutes - Hubs are using sealed cartridge bearings for smoothness and durability - FSA Adventure bars features a 12° flare for a comfortable and stable position on rough roads - Donnelly X'Plor CDG tires are 36mm wide to soak up road vibration - MEC carbon fibre post soaks up vibration for a comfortable ride - Fizik Aliante R5 saddle helps keep the ride comfortable on long days - Bikes are covered by MEC's Rocksolid Guarantee and Bike Service Agreement.
