Specs explained

Speeds2x12 (also offered 1x12)

More gears can give smaller steps but do not tell you how easy climbing will be. Climbers and loaded riders should consider the lowest gear; fast flat-road riders cadence steps and the highest gear.

ShiftingAXS electronic, fully wireless

Electronic shifting offers light, consistent operation but needs charged batteries. Mechanical shifting needs no charging and often suits tighter budgets. On gravel, chain control and the right derailleur also matter; choose a coherent package.

BrakesHydraulic disc

Hydraulic disc brakes can provide strong, controllable braking, especially in rain and descents. Rim brakes require a suitable frame and braking surface. For loads and long descents, consider the complete brake, rotor, mounting and heat-management combination.
