Why Cycles R+ V4 SRAM Red AXS XPLR Gravel Bike
The Why Cycles R+ V4 pushes the limit of what gravel bikes can be. The Why Cycles R+ V4 is made of 100% titanium, making it extremely lightweight and durable. This bike will literally last forever! The R+ was designed to be a long distance gravel machine. Designed and optimized around 700x40c tires, but can take up to 700x46. Or 27.5x2.1 if your feeling spry! Whether its buff singletrack, long paved roads, or backcountry gravel, the R+ is designed to handle it all. The R+ can go from being stiff and compliant on the road while somehow turning supple and damp on high speed washboard. The R+ comes setup for an optional internally routed 31.6 dropper post, to turn this beast into an unstoppable descending machine.
The Why Cycles R+ V4 SRAM Red AXS XPLR Gravel Bike comes with the new Sram Red AXS XPLR groupset. This is Sram's top of the line group set option and they held nothing back! The Sram Red AXS XPLR groupset provides a massive gear range that will help you pedal the steepest hills. Electronic shifting makes for a very easy going, precise shifting experience. The XPLR line of products from Sram was newly developed as a gravel specific lineup. This brings eTap shifting and 1x road drivetrains together to make a gravel racing machine.
