Specifications
Ourosborus CR/DL
“Traditional look and feel”: The bike sticks to classic gravel geometry and aesthetics no suspension, no dropper post, just clean lines and purposeful design.
“Lightweight features”: Built with a carbon frame and fork, it’s optimized for speed and efficiency without unnecessary bulk.
“Sacred characteristics of a drop bar bike”: This refers to the bike’s commitment to the classic road/gravel setup: drop handlebars, rigid frame, and efficient gearing.
“Closer gear steps”: The SRAM Rival 12-speed drivetrain uses a 10-36t cassette, which means the jumps between gears are smaller. This helps you maintain a consistent pedaling rhythm (cadence), especially useful when climbing or carrying gear.
“Sweet spot so easy to find”: With fine-tuned gearing, it’s easier to find the perfect gear for your speed and terrain keeping your ride smooth and efficient.
