Touring

Vaya GRX 600 lets you head out for rides that seamlessly cover everything from fresh asphalt to chunky gravel. The triple-butted tubing provides a silky steel ride, and the ability to run high-volume tires adds to the plush factor. Vaya's geometry and cargo-mounting options make it a prime choice for carrying the goods you need for long days in the saddle or light touring loads for multi-day trips. Shimano's GRX 600 drivetrain is a reliable performer no matter what your ride has in store.

Every decision behind the Marrakesh Alivio was made with function and durability in mind. The included front and rear racks let you load it up and go on day one, and its myriad mounting points mean you don't have to leave anything at home. Triple-butted steel tubing and high-volume tires let you cover countless miles in comfort, while its touring geometry keeps everything stable when riding loaded. Carefully-selected Shimano drivetrain components deliver ease of use, reliability, and gear range for the longest flats and steepest mountain passes, while Cowchipper bars offer moderate flare in the drops for dialed-in control, along with a relaxed riding position on the tops or hoods for all-day comfort over varied road surfaces, as well as aerodynamic benefits. It's equipped with a bevy of attachment points for endless mounting options. Wherever your travels take you, Marrakesh is a touring bike that's ready to pile on the miles.
