Giant introduces the latest generation of its Revolt gravel bikes: the Revolt Advanced Pro and Revolt Advanced. Both series are built on a new frame. The result: more speed, yet comfort. The frames are complemented by components specially designed for gravel such as handlebars, saddles and WheelSystems. Both bikes are improved over their predecessors, with intere cabling and a handy pocket in the down tube for carrying tools or a snack. Of course, there is plenty of room for bags with several lugs where you can attach them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Input from the pros<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The new series has been developed with input from Giant's gravel racers. American Cole Paton and Australian Brendan Johnston trained and raced prototype models at key events earlier this year. In June, Johnston rode the Revolt Advanced Pro to a top performance at Unbound Gravel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Flip chip and thick tyres<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

By now a well-known feature of GIANT is the flip chip that allows you to shorten or lengthen the wheelbase. If you put the flip chip in the shortest position, the result is a bike with more agility. This is ideal for rides over mixed terrain with paved roads and fast gravel paths. In the longest position, you get more stability, for when you have rougher gravel work in mind. If you go for rough work, you can put up to 53 mm tyres. It would almost become a fatbike. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Flex to the max<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The lowered seat stays have a smaller diameter, absorbing shock and vibration without making it a sluggish bike. The new Revolt comes with the latest Contact D-Fuse handlebars and D-Fuse seatposts, which improves control and reduces fatigue on long rides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cyclists can opt for the included D-Fuse seatpost, which offers great flexibility, or a standard 30.9 mm round seatpost. Even a dropper post is among the options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All models are available in sizes S, M, ML and L. In the Benelux, Giant carries the following models:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
