8bar's budget steel Pankow gravel & road touring bike strikes a versatile balance between everyday functionality and all-terrain capability!
bikes. Now they’re taking it to a next-level with this affordable touring bike that balances 50/50 on and off-road with happy medium relaxed geometry between road & gravel.
Make it a long-distance road touring bike with racks, fenders, and premium dynamo lighting with USB device recharging. Set an upright position with a flat bar, fenders, basic dynamo-powered city lighting, and a small porteur-style ‘pizza rack’ up front as an everyday commuter. Or go full backcountry off-road adventure with fatter tires, flared dropbars, and Redshift suspension stem & seatpost.
The frame features a 135mm QR rear end straight 44mm headtube for 1 1/8 or tapered forks/headsets, a 68mm BSA threaded bottom bracket, 27.2mm seatpost with integrated binder, and 1x or 2x drivetrains. Tire clearance is pretty big in gravel territory – up to 700c x 50mm or 650b x 2.1″, or even slightly wider up front with the steel fork. In any case, your all-terrain adventure shouldn’t be limited by tire choice.Can I just reiterate how many possibilities you have here? The only thing you won’t build the 8bar Pankow into is a lightweight racer. This is definitely more of a heavyweight globetrotter. The customization options are nearly endless.
