A nimble ride that retains the feel of a road bike

Gravel design for enjoying paved roads

The NESTO GAVEL is a bit different from stable gravel bikes; it's a bike that retains the nimbleness of a road bike.

With a shorter rear center and a naturally upright position, it feels like it moves forward well even on paved roads.

It's also an accessible character for those who want to start gravel riding with a road bike feel.

Easy-to-handle balance for beginners

A sense of security that allows for enjoyable riding without pushing too hard

With the flexible rear end provided by the FLEXOR structure and the stability of 700x38c tires, it adapts naturally from paved to unpaved roads.

The upright design is also appealing, allowing even beginners to drop handlebars to ride without feeling overwhelmed.

The balance is carefully crafted to prioritize "comfortable continuous riding" over "fast riding."

Affordable, yet with features that allow for "growth"

Solidly built with the necessary performance foundation

Based on SHIMANO SORA 2x9 speed, it features thru-axles, a carbon fork, and tubeless-ready wheels.

It includes all necessary performance features while leaving room for customization.

It's also compatible with racks and fenders, making it a versatile bike for commuting, touring, and everyday use.

The perfect bike for those who want to "just start gravel riding"

The NESTO GAVEL is a model that perfectly balances the nimbleness of a road bike with the security of a gravel road bike.

It's a bike that allows you to comfortably ride on paved roads and then naturally turn onto interesting side roads. It lets you enjoy "adventures that are an extension of your daily life."

It's an attractive choice not only as a first gravel road bike but also for its versatility in commuting, touring, and weekend rides. It's recommended for those who want to enter the world of gravel without feeling overwhelmed.
