However far you want to go – your Backroad wants to join you. The Unsupported model gives you complete freedom, makes you independent of electricity and charges devices while you ride. With plenty of space for luggage, a carbon frame with long-distance geometry, a powerful lighting system and plenty of tyre clearance, all roads are open to you – from the forest to the desert, from gravel to snow.
Highlights:
• SON hub dynamo – powerful, slim and efficient
• Supernova lighting system – with rear light, high beam and up to 1000 lumens
• USB-C spacer – power directly on the handlebar, from the integrated K-Werk buffer battery
• Power switch on the handlebar – choose between light, charging the power bank and off position
• Customised Fidlock bag system – frame bag and top tube bag included
• Integrated frame compartment – with tool bag for your tools
• 18 attachment points – plenty of space for bottles, bags and cages
• Tyre clearance up to 53 mm – comfort and grip on rough terrain
The Backroad Unsupported comes with Shimano's mechanical 1x12 GRX RX820 gravel top groupset, extra wide 50 mm Schwalbe G-One Overland tyres, robust Rose G30 aluminium wheels (27 mm rim width) and a chainguide to protect against chain drops. An adventure gravel bike that has everything – so you don't have to think about a thing.
