The Crux DSW redefines what an alloy gravel bike can be. Using insights from the carbon Crux and our patented D’Aluisio Smartweld technology, it delivers a ride that’s incredibly light, responsive, and capable in all conditions. With remarkable handling and race-inspired geometry, it offers a fast, high-performance feel typically reserved for carbon frames - yet with the toughness and value of premium alloy.
Engineered for riders who want to explore further and go faster, the Crux DSW pairs class-leading tire clearance with a precisely tuned alloy chassis that excels across pavement, gravel, and mixed terrain. Its feather-light frame, confident handling, and balanced fit make it the ideal choice for racing, long-distance adventures, or just pushing harder on your local gravel loops.
