Journeyer Claris 700c makes it easy to get into gravel. We designed its
all-new aluminum frame and Fantail aluminum fork around comfortable
geometry and versatile features. The fender, rack, accessory, and
Three-Pack mounts let you outfit it just the way you want. Gravel riding
on a hot day? Load up with extra water. Commuting? Add a rack and
fenders and keep your eyes open for fun side roads and paths. Going
bikepacking? Our Anything Cages hold your gear in under-utilized space
for a minimal setup.
The 700c x 38 mm wheel and tire package rolls quickly and smoothly on
pavement, but with enough traction for loose dirt and gravel. Shimano’s
Claris 2 x 8-speed drivetrain grants you the gear range to take on
uphill grinds or take advantage of tailwinds. All of these features come
together in an affordable package that might make it the best beginner
gravel bike out there.
