THE ULTIMATE ALL-ROUNDER

The XR 9.7 GF is built to perform on the road while remaining capable beyond it, combining a lightweight XR Race carbon frame with efficient power transfer at just 17.5 lbs. It balances speed, comfort, and control for long-distance riding across smooth tarmac and rougher surfaces.

BUILT FOR PERFORMANCE

Equipped with a Shimano Ultegra Di2 12-speed drivetrain for precise electronic shifting and efficient gearing, the XR 9.7 GF delivers smooth power transfer and consistent performance. DT Swiss wheels provide reliable rolling efficiency, durability, and stable handling across varied road conditions.

MODERN ROAD DESIGN

Clearance for tires up to 45 mm expands versatility beyond the road. The adaptable frame allows easy conversion between road and gravel setups. UDH compatibility ensures drivetrain future-readiness, while internal cable routing and combo bar integration deliver a clean, streamlined front-end.

Designed for high-mileage road riding and mixed surfaces, they offer consistent performance with efficient power transfer and long-term dependability.

**INTEGRATED COCKPIT** Carbon handlebar and stem combo with full internal cable routing creates a clean front end with no visible cables or hoses. Optimized ergonomics improve hand positioning and control, delivering a precise and comfortable riding experience on road and gravel.

**XR RACE CARBON PLATFORM** Lightweight XR Race high-modulus carbon frame delivers increased stiffness and lower weight, improving power transfer and responsiveness for faster acceleration and more efficient performance on gravel and road.
