INTROWhen everyday life is gray, this gravel bike comes around the corner like a little summer day. Our current Bike of the Week is a real highlight—in the truest sense of the word: the veloheld.alleyX Tourist in “Illusion Tropical Fusion.” Glossy paint, fully equipped, and ready for anything from bike tours to daily commutes to spontaneous weekend getaways.In short: a touring bike that also shines as a commuter bike  and looks damn good doing it.

A gravel bike for all situations

The veloheld.alleyX Tourist is made for anyone who feels at home on a bike – whether on the way to work, touring Europe, or on small adventures off the beaten track. The Shimano Alfine 11-speed gear system runs quietly, smoothly, and is almost maintenance-free. Combined with the Gates CDX belt drive, this means no oil, no dirt, and no chain tensioning. In other words, ideal conditions for simply getting on and rolling away.

The wheelset (SON, Shimano) is robust and durable, and the 40 mm wide Schwalbe G-One Allround tires feel just as comfortable on asphalt as they do on gravel, dirt roads, or cobblestones. Gravel as it should be: comfortable, flexible, relaxed.
