Yep, Boardman's colourful new prototype gravel bike is basically a 90s gravel bike... but that's not a bad thing, says boardmanbikes! Read all about it on off_roadcc... cycling
There is no hiding the fact that this bike's geometry is very akin to an old-school hardtail, the tyre width is similar and the tracks and trails it's best suited for are very much the same. The bike has a 70-degree head angle and is equipped with a RockShox Rudy fork with 30mm of travel for extra squish and grip at the front. The bars are 700mm wide for a more upright position and calmer handling - and as Dowler pointed out, make a good option for anyone suffering from back problems.
"We’ll take disc brakes which actually work, tubeless tyres which don’t pinch tubes and a dropper post over your 90s museum piece any day. We might just steal the colourway though, that’s timeless!" the brand concluded.On the prototype, there is space for 50mm tyres and Dowler had equipped it with some Goodyear Connectors for the 130km route that he completed in the very grim conditions that the riders were facing on Saturday.
While the prototype utilises external cabling, this might change when the final bike breaks cover. There are both flat- and drop-bar versions of the TRVL in the pipeline and Boardman says availability can be expected towards the end of the year.
