Gravel bikes have gained significant popularity in recent years, and for good reason: they are among the most versatile bikes available and are suitable for both beginners and experienced riders. The RAG+ has been part of this evolution from the very beginning and consistently incorporates its off-road roots into its design.
Today, the RAG+ has become a true favorite, not only among experienced gravel enthusiasts but also among riders who would never have considered a bike with drop handlebars before. Its uses are virtually limitless: from daily commuting to ambitious cross-country races to use as a sporty fitness bike.
Numerous mounting points allow for flexible transport of luggage and accessories, making the RAG+ ideal for longer tours and adventures. The bicycle can be ridden with classic 28" road tires, gravel tires up to 45mm wide, as well as 27.5" wheels and tires up to 2.20" wide.
Technicaly, the RAG+ impresses with modern features, including a 1x drivetrain with a wide gear range, reliable disc brakes, and thru axles for added stability. The elegant aluminum frame is complemented by a lightweight carbon fork and offers a successful balance of durability and comfort.
For the current generation, the geometry has been specifically revised to further improve handling. A higher steerer ensures a more comfortable, rider-oriented seating position, while a longer reach and a flatter head angle provide additional stability and control—without compromising the bicycle’s sporty character.
