Comfortable and agile on any terrain
Due to the combination of long reach and short stem, the ATLAS 8.7 is a rather long bike resulting in a really smooth ride. The front end provides confidence while going downhill. Super short chainstays make the gravel bike playful and agile, which will please all riders who like to tackle each other no matter the surface. To make sure that you can handle this fast bike perfectly, you can adjust the handlebar position according to your needs. The stem is available in six different lengths from 70 to 120 mm and the handlebar height can be changed with special two-piece spacers.
Various options to mount equipment
The ATLAS 8.7 frame offers many options to carry bags comfortably. You can easily attach a bar, saddle, or frame bag. The bike comes with our top tube bag in which you can store essential tools or snacks to eat while pedalling. For bottle cages, the carbon frame provides three more mounting possibilities. One bottle cage can be screwed at the seat tube and two more at the down tube – one above and one below. On top, the three screws on the fork’s left and right side offer two additional mounting points. Here you can install racks for further luggage or bottle cages. With a maximum system weight (bike, rider, and equipment) of 120 kg, this light carbon gravel bike allows you to take lots of stuff with you.
Made for fast gravel escapes
Thanks to fast-rolling and tubeless-ready 45 mm WTB Riddler tyres and Shimano GRX shifting with gravel specific gear ratio, the ATLAS 8.7 is built to accompany your bikepacking adventures. The wide carbon handlebar with flare and a carbon seat post provide full control and comfort. The C.I.S. (Cockpit Integration Solution) technology ensures a clean look without any cables in the way when attaching a bar bag. Whether in bad weather conditions or on demanding surfaces, when suffering during steep climbs or going the really long distances – the ATLAS 8.7 fully supports your ride, even to the end of the world.
