Fast and Light
The technology from the road bike that has racked up the most KOMs combines with the qualities of the bike that won Unbound. The SuperX is super light and aerodynamic. Perfect for staying ahead of the pack in this new evolution of Gravel racing, which is becoming increasingly explosive and fast. For the SuperX, keeping up with and setting the pace of today’s races—with recorded speeds exceeding 35 km/h—is no problem.
Gliding Over Gravel
The SuperX’s sophisticated carbon construction minimizes the impact of bumps, making you feel like you’re floating over the trail as you ride. Specially designed zones of controlled flex in the seat tube, top tube, and rear triangle work in tandem with the D-shaped seatpost to absorb shocks and vibrations.
You’re in control
Choose the fastest lines. Pass on the inside. Release the brakes and let it run. The SuperX combines stability and control, responding with composure at crucial moments, allowing you to hold your line while continuing to move forward. It achieves this thanks to its race-tuned geometry, OutFront steering design, and carefully calculated frame stiffness.
Built to Take It. Tailored to You.
The Proportional Response concept of the SuperX’s carbon frame is geared toward Gravel racing and designed to adapt to you. The frame is size-specific. Layers of different types and moduli of carbon fiber are precisely oriented to deliver an ideal balance of weight, stiffness, and durability for your size and riding style. And it’s backed by our lifetime warranty.
Dive into the mud madness. Are you passionate about cyclocross?
The SuperX has you covered. Just pop on some 33c tires and you’re good to go. With its top speed, stability, and plenty of room for mud, the SuperX will handle even the muddiest races with ease. And by the way, you’ll love the flat top tube when you sling it over your shoulder.
Wide Tires
The terrain, the courses, the weather… everything is highly variable. The SuperX accommodates tires up to 48mm in the frame and 51mm in the fork, with at least 4mm of clearance on each side. So you can ride with the right tire for whatever the day demands.
D-Shaped Profile
The D-shaped cross-section of the SuperX’s seatpost improves aerodynamics and increases vertical compliance, reducing muscle fatigue. It helps you conserve energy for the final sprint.
OutFront Geometry
OutFront combines a slack head angle with a 55mm fork offset—longer than usual. This provides stability and control on steep descents or uneven terrain, while maintaining high handling agility for quick changes of direction.
Delta Headset Tube
The Delta Steerer design is ideal for Gravel racing. It allows for clean cable routing from the Cockpit to the frame and features a reduced frontal area for greater aerodynamic efficiency.
Hidden Threads
A discreet cap hides the mount for attaching a bag to the SuperX’s top tube. It’s there if you need it. It’s practically invisible when you’re not using it.
