Gravel is getting faster and so are the athletes at the front of the race. The Devote Advanced SL is engineered to respond when the pace explodes and the pack starts to splinter. Developed with direct input from pro-riders, it’s designed to deliver efficiency over distance, control at race pace, and performance without compromise. From long solo efforts to tactical pack moves and sprint finishes, this is a platform built for riders who hunt the podium and leave nothing out there but a trail of dust CARRY SPEED The new Advanced SL-grade composite frame and fork bring the highest-level carbon construction to the Devote, built to snap into action the second you kick and stay efficient deep into race efforts. As the descent gets loose and control becomes critical, the updated OverDrive system keeps steering razor-sharp, while the D-Fuse seatpost adds controlled compliance to reduce fatigue without compromising power transfer.​ KEEP MOMENTUM Aero tube shaping, integrated cable routing, wheel integration, and tire selection are engineered together as a complete race system to help you waste less energy across rough, exposed, high-speed terrain Reduced drag, lower rolling resistance, and improved stability help maintain momentum while the pace keeps lifting and headwinds start grinding you down. Wind tunnel testing with Liv’s “Georgia” mannequin validates aerodynamic performance around how women race, improving efficiency during solo moves, fast pack dynamics, and long stretches spent fighting the wind HOLD LINES Race-focused geometry puts you lower, farther forward, and more centered over the bike for an efficient position when speeds stay high and the terrain turns unpredictable. A longer front-center and wheelbase improve stability without dulling steering response, while a steeper head tube angle and reduced trail sharpen front-end handling through blown-out corners and sketchy race conditions. Optimized around modern 45mm gravel race tires, with clearance for up to 53mm, you can balance rolling speed, grip, and control across everything from fast hardpack sectors to rough, technical terrain.
