About the Whyte Friston Gravel Bike
The Friston is perfect if you’re looking for a gravel bike that’s fun, versatile and will push the limits of what you can do off-road on a drop-barred bike. Load up and leave home or take the wild way to work and back, the Friston is designed to go the bike packing distance, and makes the journey the best part of the experience. Light yet tough, lively yet surefooted, fast on the road, fun in the woods, the Friston is more than just gravel.
Practical, good looking and always ready for adventure, Friston is your ideal getaway partner. Wide-range SRAM Apex single ring 1x11 gearing makes climbing easy – whether summiting mountain passes with bike packing gear or making up for lost time after the morning alarm didn’t go off. The lightweight, rough-smoothing carbon fork boosts all-day comfort. SRAM Apex 1 hydraulic disc brakes with a larger 180mm front rotor give you maximum braking control and mean stopping is never an issue either. Sealing gussets and adding masses of mud clearance around 700x45mm tyres mean bad weather will never hold you back. And if that wasn’t enough, the alloy frame and carbon fork have mounts to take a full set of bike packing gear or conventional pannier racks, so the Friston can be ridden as far or fast as you like.
