Gravel Bike Rental Cape Town

LIGHT AND FAST – GO ANYWHERE, DO ANYTHING – It’s about having fun!
The Switch Comp is a full carbon gravel grinder that is ready for any race or adventure. Internal cable routing, Carbon Fibre Switch Gravel. The Fork is stiff, offering lightweight performance. Mechanical disk brakes offer performance in all conditions, Vittoria Terreno Tubeless conversions take care of those pesky punctures. So how do these bikes fit into our lifestyles? The easiest possible explanation could be: Cyclocross and Touring bikes gave birth, they named it Gravel. One can define a gravel bike as something with drop handlebars and intended for riding on gravel or dirt, but also tarmac. As mentioned above, you can virtually go ANYWHERE. If you haven't ridden a gravel bike yet you are missing out big time. We spend more time riding tarmac on our gravel bikes than on our road bikes. Get in touch and give this new medium a test ride. You won't be sorry. Addiction comes in many forms.

The Right Frame Sizes

Gravel bike frame sizing is not that different from a road bike. If you’re riding on a 54 cm road bike then select the same frame size for your rental gravel bike. Many manufacturers use S-M-L specifications instead of cm-sizing and often just have three or four frame sizes to choose from. But don’t worry too much about it, the frequently changing terrain will force you to switch riding positions all the time and you never end up riding in the same position for too long. This means that it’s not critical if the frame is either a tad too small or too big – you’ll be fine. If you find yourself in between sizes, grab the bigger one if you intend to do long or multi-day trips, the smaller one if you mostly are planning on short and fast rides.
