Velo Tests Six Divergent Gravel Bikes in Squamish to Define the Category’s Future
Velo has launched a multi-part field test in Squamish, British Columbia, to determine the future direction of gravel cycling by pitting six radically different bike designs against each other. The series features three distinct riders evaluating models ranging from aerodynamic race bikes to drop-bar mountain bikes and 32-inch wheel platforms. This initiative aims to resolve ongoing debates about whether gravel bikes should prioritize speed, endurance, or technical off-road capability.
