Why the MOG Stands Out
The MOG redefines what a gravel bike can do by refusing to compromise between speed and capability. With clearance for 700c x 50mm tires, no flip chips, no extra wheelsets, no complexity, the MOG eliminates the need to even think about 650b wheels. The revolutionary Cargo Bay provides 36 cubic inches (0.6 liters) of integrated downtube storage, transforming unused frame space into practical carrying capacity without external bags. Add top tube bag mounts, fork accessory mounts, and a third bottle cage, and you have a bike designed for self-supported adventures. The IN-Route System routes all cables and hoses internally through the bar, stem, and headset with anti-rattle hardware, delivering clean aesthetics and improved aerodynamics. Through six frame sizes and three unique fork rakes, the MOG ensures optimal handling for riders of all sizes—from the smallest to the largest.
Who Should Ride the MOG?
The MOG is built for gravel riders who demand versatility without sacrificing performance. If you race gravel events one weekend and embark on bikepacking adventures the next, the MOG is your ultimate platform. It's ideal for competitive gravel racers who need massive tire clearance and integrated storage for long courses, adventure cyclists planning multi-day expeditions with gear, and riders who want one bike capable of handling everything from fast hardpack to rugged backcountry terrain. With its performance geometry, dropper post compatibility, and build-it-your-way chassis approach, the MOG excels for riders who push boundaries and refuse to be limited by traditional categories. If you're ready to MOG, whether that means racing, performance riding, or pure adventure.
