FAQ
A gravel bike is a versatile bicycle that combines the speed of a road bike with the robustness of a mountain bike. It is perfect for riding on gravel, forest paths, rough roads or easy trails – ideal for adventure, commuting and bikepacking.
Steel frames offer excellent riding comfort, are extremely robust and easy to repair – a major advantage on long tours. They also ensure a smooth ride, which is particularly pleasant on unpaved roads.
Yes, steel is the preferred frame material for many bikepacking enthusiasts. Veloheld gravel bikes have numerous eyelets and attachment points for bags, bottle holders, luggage racks or mudguards – ideal for longer, self-sufficient tours.
A titanium frame is extremely durable, corrosion-free and lighter than steel. It offers a sporty, direct riding experience while remaining comfortable and requiring virtually no maintenance – perfect for anyone looking for a high-quality gravel bike that will last a lifetime.
Modern steel frames are finished with high-quality paint or powder coatings that provide reliable protection against rust. With a little care – especially after riding in the rain – the frame will remain in good condition for a long time.
A gravel bike is more versatile than a road bike or cyclocross bike. It combines the speed of a road bike with the off-road capabilities of a cyclocross bike: wider tyres, more comfortable geometry and mounting options for bags make it ideal for everyday use, touring and bikepacking – not just for racing. While a road bike is optimised for asphalt and a cyclocross bike is primarily built for short, athletic cross-country races, a gravel bike covers a much wider range of uses. It is the bike for anyone seeking freedom and adventure on any terrain.
A gravel bike with a steel frame is slightly heavier than one made of titanium or carbon, but it scores points for comfort, stability and durability. Modern CrMo steel frames are much lighter than their reputation suggests and weigh no more than about 0.5 kg more than a titanium frame. For everyday and gravel use, this extra weight is hardly noticeable – many riders appreciate the smooth and comfortable riding characteristics of steel.
Yes – you can get your veloheld gravel bike in your desired colour. In addition to our standard colours, we offer over 200 RAL colours and countless Prismatic Powders colours to choose from. The result is a bike that not only rides perfectly, but also suits your style – individual, unique and handmade in Dresden.
