Kross Esker ADV 3.0 Sram Rival E1 1x13 gravel bike

The Kross Esker ADV 3.0 is the absolute flagship model of the brand for this season. This uncompromising carbon gravel bike is designed for riders who demand the latest technologies and maximum performance on race tracks and extreme expeditions. It combines superior power transfer, low weight, and highly innovative engineering.

At its core is an all-new carbon frame with progressive geometry. A key innovation is the integrated storage compartment directly in the downtube, which easily holds a spare tube and tools, eliminating the need for bulky saddlebags that disrupt aerodynamics and design. The frame features the UDH standard and offers multiple mounting points for racks and bottles. The full carbon fork effectively absorbs micro-vibrations and guarantees precise steering.

Drivetrain duties are handled by the revolutionary 13-speed wireless SRAM Rival XPLR AXS groupset. Utilizing direct mount technology to the frame's axle without a traditional hanger, this system delivers unrivaled durability and absolute shifting precision in any terrain. The SRAM XG-1351 cassette with a 10-46T range, paired with a 40T chainring, provides the ideal gear steps for steep climbs and fast flats.

Another major highlight of this model is the wheelset. The Esker ADV 3.0 rolls on premium SRAM Zipp 303 XPLR S Carbon wheels, aerodynamically optimized for modern wide gravel tires. Traction is provided by the fastest race-ready Schwalbe G-One RS TLE 700x45C tires with minimal rolling resistance. Rider comfort is completed by the high-end Fizik Terra Argo X5 saddle.
