FEATURES

• Lightest: 725g S - Works 12r and 825g 10r frames. We used the same tech that made Aethos super light on the Crux. The result is a gravel bike that climbs easily, glides over tough ground, and weighs less than a full water bottle.
• Capable: 47c/650b x 2.1” tire clearance. More clearance means more freedom to go anywhere at high speed.
• Responsive: It's quick to respond at the pedals and comfortable in the saddle. Its performance gravel geometry and race - inspired fit come from Crux's famous cross - racing history.

Using the 2025 Crux Expert is a breeze. First, adjust the saddle and handlebars to your comfortable position. When you're out on the gravel, use the SRAM Rival eTap AXS groupset to shift gears according to the terrain. For uphill sections, shift to lower gears for easier pedaling, and for flat or downhill parts, use higher gears for speed. When it comes to braking, the hydraulic disc brakes offer reliable stopping power, but make sure to apply them gradually, especially on slippery surfaces. As for maintenance, regularly clean your bike after each ride, especially the chain, gears, and brakes. Check the tire pressure before every ride, and keep it at the recommended level. Also, inspect the frame for any cracks or damages. If you notice any issues, take it to a professional bike mechanic for repair. By following these simple steps, your Crux Expert will serve you well for a long time.
