Overview
The Libre LTD takes the precision and confidence of the carbon Libre and combines them with the strength, ride quality, and enduring character of steel. Fast when you put the power down and composed when the road falls apart, it’s ready for years of gravel racing, long distance exploration, bad weather, and trips to the end of the earth and back again. It’s the gravel bike Mad Max would ride after discovering drop bars. The wasteland is calling. Bring water.
Features
Kona Cromoly Frame: Provides a smooth, comfortable ride with the durability needed for gravel riding and loaded trips.

Wide Gravel Tires: WTB Vulpine 700 × 45mm tires add traction, comfort, and stability on pavement and dirt.
