Carbon Performance for Less

The XDS GT8 offers an impressive combination of T800 carbon construction, Shimano GRX components and carbon gravel wheels at $3,999.

The lightweight carbon frame provides a responsive platform for accelerating on smooth surfaces, while the gravel-focused geometry and wide 45mm tyres give you the confidence to tackle rougher roads and trails.

It's an ideal choice for riders stepping into performance gravel, experienced road riders looking for more versatility or anyone wanting a single bike for road, gravel and adventure riding.

Shimano GRX 12-Speed Gravel Drivetrain

The GT8 uses a Shimano GRX 12-speed drivetrain, developed specifically for the demands of gravel and mixed-surface riding.

The 46/30T Shimano GRX crankset is paired with an 11-36T 12-speed cassette, providing a versatile gear range for everything from fast road sections to longer gravel climbs.

Shimano GRX shifting delivers the precision and reliability riders expect from Shimano, while the dedicated gravel components are designed to handle the additional demands of rough and variable terrain.

Branta C45 Carbon Gravel Wheels

The GT8 is equipped with a Branta C45 Gravel Carbon Wheelset, giving this carbon gravel bike a lightweight and performance-focused wheel platform.

Carbon wheels help provide a responsive feel when accelerating while complementing the bike's fast and versatile gravel setup.

The C45 wheelset is matched with Continental Terra Trail 700x45C tyres, providing a strong balance between rolling speed, traction and comfort.

Continental Terra Trail 45mm Tyres

The Continental Terra Trail 700x45C tyres are designed for riders who regularly transition between sealed roads, gravel and rougher surfaces.

The 45mm width provides additional comfort and traction compared with narrower road tyres, while maintaining the speed and efficiency required for longer mixed-surface rides.

Built for Australian Gravel & Adventure

From hinterland gravel roads and fire trails to long-distance adventures, the XDS GT8 carbon gravel bike is designed to give Australian riders the freedom to explore further.

Its combination of carbon construction, wide gravel tyres, Shimano GRX gearing and carbon wheels makes it a versatile choice for riders who don't want to be limited to one type of terrain.

Ride it on the road during the week, take it onto gravel at the weekend and load it up for your next adventure.
