Road bike vs all-road bike vs gravel bike: what’s the difference and which one is right for you? cycling
Similar to endurance road bikes in many ways, an all-road bike generally offers a slightly more relaxed position than the road race bike, greater tyre clearance within the frame, and then fills that space with a set of tyres that will cope with fine, smooth gravel.
The first is that it can be more comfortable for longer rides. No one wants to get to the final part of a lovely ride, only for their back to cramp up. A greater bottom bracket drop lowers your centre of gravity and provides more stability, but also reduces pedal clearance. All that said, some gravel bikes, like the 3T Exploro RaceMax, are aimed at racers, the whole gravel market having developed out of the US gravel race scene. These race-focused gravel bikes feature geometries that are far more aggressive than those of some endurance road bikes.
