At Obvious, we realise that there are almost as many gravel bikes as there are riders.
\nThat's one of the defining characteristics of this type of bike.<\/p>\n

Whether you're a fan of speed as a way of letting off steam, which is often the case with our customers who use ON\/OFF<\/a> as standard, or a less sporty or more contemplative rider - those who have come to us for a made-to-measure model and for whom we create OUT\/QUEST<\/a> - almost all of them ask themselves the question at the time of purchase: are you going to do some bikepacking ?
\nBikepacking is what dreams are made of, and it's what gives us absolute freedom.
\nThe ambitions are varied. They range from touring the d\u00e9partement where you live to the French Divide and the Grande Travers\u00e9e des Alpes.<\/p>\n\"\"\n

 <\/p>\n

Each time, there's the question of luggage... and what it's useful to take with you, which depends on the length of the trip, the location and the type of accommodation. Do I want a bike that's ready with all the equipment I need to set off on my own, or do I want to avoid hostile territory and book gites for the nights ?
\nOne of the underlying questions for some people is whether a bike that might be used from time to time for travelling should have a multitude of attachment points for luggage and water bottles. Some people feel that this detracts from the design of a bike that will be used all year round for shopping and short, intense outings !<\/p>\n

At OBVIOUS, we can give you good advice, but it's up to you!<\/p>\n

However, a very streamlined bike like ON\/OFF can be used for travelling. The more committed position can be an asset for a sporting challenge.
\nAnd there's always a solution for carrying luggage. With no attachment points other than those dedicated to the 2 bottle cages, it's possible to load up a bit. In addition to the panniers, which can be attached to the frame or handlebars using laces or Velcro.
\nAnd despite the absence of frame fixings, there are solutions for mounting a luggage rack. We use a Tailfin<\/a> luggage rack : no frame fixings, just a replacement rear wheel axle and a strap around the seatpost!<\/p>\n

This way, I can take a short trip for a few days every now and then, and the rest of the time my ON\/OFF is in \u2018sport\u2019 configuration for my short, intense trips.<\/strong><\/p>\n\"\"\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
