As an avid gravel rider it would be good to hear your thoughts .... even better, would be very good to get your feedback after a long ride on it.

As I've stated before I've ridden a gravel bike with front suspension .... if I needed that for the surface I was riding I would rather ride a hardtail MTB. In fact I very quickly got rid of that setup and went back to a standard hard trail configuration.

I love gravel bikes and gravel riding but as I've stated before as well, on the terrain where they belong! I have nothing to prove ....

Maar nou ja dis maar seker net ek 😜

I would have me one of those ,maybe.Would prefer the Cannondale with the Kingpin suspension / Lefty Oliver Carbon gravel fork and a canyon VCLS 2.0 CF seatpost, love the look of the split carbon post. That would be my ideal gravel bike😁😁 NSBB gasps 😶 😂

Just another New bike model Giant probably won’t have available until the next trend of gravel bikes are out (My bet is that aero gravel will be the new style, think giant propel with clearance for 42mm tires)

Speaking of propel the MY23 propels are not available yet in most markets 🙄

Available in late March ;)

All I see is the 90’s Cobble Grinders of the “Z” team, they were onto something and way ahead of the times.

That was Mr Greg Lemond and his looking for an advantage. If memory serves, Gilbert Duclos-Lassalle won the Paris Roubaix on the suspended TVT in 1993

Good article Stan. Dave is such a great guy and skilled craftsman.

Dave built me a gravel frame designed for a 50mm suspension fork about 4 or 5 years ago. I've built up a lot of rigid and suspension gravel frames over the last 8 years and both can be great.
