TORRO
The Torro is the latest addition to our range.
​
The Torro is a gravel tourer. We’ve been asked many times for a gravel bike that you can go touring on - here it is.
​
Gravel bikes vary significantly, from fast race gravel bikes which are essentially road bikes but with bigger tyre clearances and flared drops, through to aggressive adventure gravel bikes at the other end of the spectrum - i.e. mountain bikes with drops.
​
The Torro sits in the middle but with more of a focus on the ability to carry luggage, whether that be through a bikepacking or pannier rack set up, or a mixture of the two.
​
The combination of the wall thicknesses and diameters of the Reynolds 853 tubes we we have specc’d on the Torro, give it the strength for touring as well as the agility of a gravel bike.
​
The clearance can be designed for either 27.5” x 47mm or 700c x 43mm, so more clearance than our Conway and Skyelander models.
​
There is a choice of transmissions - either a Shimano GRX 820 1x12, 2x11 810, or Sram Rival Mullet 1x12 wireless. Outside of these transmissions - we will also offer a couple of cheaper options - GRX RX610 1x12, mechanical Sram Apex 1x12 as well as higher spec Sram mullet wireless - Force and Red.
​
The carbon fork is a full carbon monocoque adventure fork with cargo mounts.
​
The bike weight, with an average size frame, 650b x1.9" tyres, Shimano 1x12 - circa 11kg.
