2023 Giant Revolt Advanced 2 Gravel Bike

Ready to explore beyond the pavement, the Giant Revolt Advanced 2 (2022) is a gravel bike built on a lightweight Advanced-Grade carbon frame. A 2x11 Shimano GRX drivetrain gives you a wide gear range for everything from steep dirt climbs to fast road stretches, while the rigid frame stays efficient and responsive. It's a quick, adventurous ride that's equally at home on backroads and dirt.

Why we like it:

The 2x11 GRX gravel-specific drivetrain offers a huge spread of gears, so you're never caught spinning out on descents or grinding up loose climbs.

Who it's for:

It's a great match for gravel riders and adventurers who mix dirt roads, singletrack, and pavement and want one capable, do-anything drop-bar bike.

Highlights:

The Advanced-Grade carbon composite frame keeps weight low and takes the buzz out of rough surfaces without any suspension. Shifting comes from a Shimano GRX group with RX810 and RX600 components in a 2x11 layout, and Shimano GRX RX400 hydraulic disc brakes deliver consistent control in the dirt and wet. The bike is tuned for stability and comfort over long days in the saddle.

Things to consider:

The Revolt is a capable drop-bar bike for dirt roads and light singletrack. With no suspension and gravel geometry, it is not suited to technical mountain-bike trails or rough, chunky descents.
