What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: "I’ve been impressed by how balanced this Astr build feels on loose gravel and fast fire roads. The Apex AXS drivetrain shifts crisply even under load, and the frame’s lower bottom bracket adds a planted, confident feel when cornering. Paired with wide 45c tires and a flared cockpit, it’s a build that’s ready for race weekends but still comfortable on long exploratory rides." We turn to the Ridley Astr Apex XPLR AXS 1x12 when the gravel season ramps up and our calendar fills with mixed-terrain races and long adventure rides.
