perfect except.... the derailleur adjustment, I had to adjust it the day after receiving it, it's a bit of a shame.

Alright

I've always dreamed of a bike like this and it meets my expectations very well. I had to redo the derailleur after a few weeks and I switched to thinner and tubeless tires. The original tires are a bit too wide for white path/road use

Updated rating

All in all, a great bike. I think it's stupid that tubeless ready tires are fitted, but neither sealant nor the necessary valves are included. I've now gone back to tubes because tubeless is far too complicated for me. It's also a shame that customer service isn't available by phone. At least the number on the invoice/order only leads to a recorded message. I also don't think it's particularly modern that you have to take the item to a branch to have it checked. But the last review was addressed and an attempt was made to help me. The brakes and gears were not pre-assembled optimally and are a bit imprecise. The bike not only makes a good visual impression, it is also very stable and reliable at higher speeds. My last review can be deleted. I should have looked into the topic of tubeless more beforehand and Decathlon should have sold the necessary accessories or pointed them out in the article. Customers assume that things work relatively easily. All in all, a purchase recommendation.

Gravel bike

I tried the bike. Everything works very well, just a small problem with the front derailment (from time to time when changing quickly) when going from the big to the small chainring.

Great bike, small defects, poor service

I've had the bike for 3 days now and have ridden it for almost 250km in that time. It's really fun and I'm really impressed with the bike itself. The only thing I would criticize about the bike itself would be the saddle, which I'll soon be replacing with a Brooks. It's extremely painful, especially on longer journeys, but around an hour. What I didn't like was the poor service. I don't mean the purchase advice, which was extremely friendly and helpful, but the pre-assembly of the bike. I took the bike "ready to ride". The chain and rear derailleur were not oiled or greased and the gears were very poorly adjusted, regardless of whether the tension or the limiter. Constant creaking, gears that only engage after two gear changes and the chain keeps jumping off the chainring when shifting down on the front derailleur. What I would also like is a clear document containing all the technical data and installed parts, so that in case of replacement I always have something to hand to find the right spare parts.

Great bike, nice color!

I've been riding the bike for two months now and have covered around 250-300km with it. Riding on roads and gravel paths is absolutely no problem and can be done efficiently. The size XL is very comfortable for me with a stride length of 85cm and arm length of 63cm for a body height of 185cm and not "too sporty" or too big. I would probably still choose a size smaller next time. So definitely see if you can test ride this bike or, for example, the GRVL 120 and weigh it up. All I can say about the components is that in the case of the gears, the Shimano 105 is a tried and tested gear system that is also used in higher-priced bikes. The brakes do what they're supposed to and otherwise there are no unusual features, apart from the color, which looks really smart! I can really recommend the bike!

Very good bike for starting gravel and cyclo (purchase of a pair of road wheels)

Value for money not found elsewhere

Value for money not found elsewhere. I am very happy with this bike so far.

Good first gravel

Bike used for 18 months and 3600km (travel, bike to work...). I quickly replaced the wheels with another model (freewheel with play and creaking, returns to after-sales service among my colleagues, I need reliability for traveling). Be careful, the Quick release system no longer seems to be the current standard (through), this limits the possibilities. The TRP hybrid brakes are passable (significant clearance at the levers is mandatory and not the efficiency and comfort of a fully hydraulic system). Rear derailleur replaced once (cage apparently slightly warped causing the tensioner roller to derail). The wheel arches are a little tight: in case of mud and with the original tires, it quickly rubs on the seat stays and the front fork. For the rest, everything works.

Excellent value for money

Ideal gravel bike, with an excellent quality-price ratio. Perfect for getting started.

I love it. This bike glides over the road like a penguin on an ice floe.

Overall very satisfied. Does what it promises.

Very robust bike, I have now tested it for about 500km and have also ridden on rough tracks. The gears had to be completely adjusted by myself. Disadvantage: You cannot attach a stand. There are no suitable recommendations when it comes to selecting additional components such as mudguards and the staff on site are overwhelmed. Had to return some things because they were incompatible.

Better than expected!

I'm a gravel newbie and after a lot of research, I got more than I thought for the offer price of under 1000 Øre. The bike was fully usable straight out of the box and I'm having a blast!!! I'm convinced I made a good purchase. My e-bike from Rockmachine, which I really appreciate, is crying in the garage... I'm enjoying biobiking again!
