The Gravel Bike Kross Esker 5.0 28” is an alternative to a traditional road bike, differing in several key details. The fork is wider, allowing for significantly wider tires, so you can confidently ride off-road. The frame is also shorter overall than a typical road bike, providing a more comfortable riding position.
The bike is also equipped with Shimano disc brakes, which are not always standard on road bikes. The Gravel Bike Kross Esker 5.0 is therefore an ideal choice for riders who enjoy classic road cycling but can’t resist venturing onto dirt paths or other terrain during their rides.
The 12-speed Shimano drivetrain ensures smooth and seamless shifting in any situation. Its very low weight, wider WTB tires, durable aluminum frame, and reliable disc brakes all make the Gravel Bike Kross Esker 5.0 a great choice for riding both on and off the road.
