Built for Australian Gravel
From long hinterland rides to local gravel roads, fire trails and mixed-surface adventures, the XDS GT8 carbon gravel bike is designed to give Australian riders the versatility to explore further.
The combination of a lightweight carbon frame, wide-range 12-speed gearing, carbon wheels and 45mm gravel tyres makes the GT8 equally at home on fast gravel roads, rougher trails and extended adventure rides.
The carbon platform provides the performance and responsiveness expected from a premium gravel bike, while the generous tyre clearance gives riders the flexibility to run wider rubber when comfort and traction are the priority.
Shimano GRX 12-Speed Di2
The GT8 features Shimano GRX electronic shifting, giving riders fast, precise and reliable gear changes across a wide 12-speed range.
Combined with a 10-51T cassette and 40T chainring, the gearing provides plenty of range for everything from high-speed road sections to steep gravel climbs.
Power Meter Included
Performance-focused riders will appreciate the integrated Branta power meter crankset.
Having a power meter fitted as standard makes the GT8 an excellent choice for riders who want to monitor training performance, track improvements and better understand their effort on longer gravel and endurance rides.
Branta C45 Carbon Gravel Wheels
The Branta C45 Gravel Carbon Wheelset provides a lightweight and responsive foundation for the GT8.
Paired with Continental Terra Trail 700x45C tyres, the wheel and tyre combination is designed to balance speed, grip and comfort across sealed roads and rougher gravel surfaces.
Integrated Storage & Adventure Capability
The GT8 isn't just designed to be fast. It's built for riders who want to venture beyond the usual road ride.
Integrated frame storage and mounting points provide additional practicality for carrying tools, spares and essential equipment on longer rides, bikepacking trips and gravel adventures.
