Santa Cruz Gravel Bikes

Santa Cruz's gravel bikes extend the brand's mountain bike DNA into new terrain with the same no-compromises approach to performance. The Stigmata proves that Santa Cruz's trail roots thrive beyond the dirt, from backcountry fire roads to serpentine singletrack. With clearance for big tires, a refined carbon layup, and a ride feel that's equal parts fast and forgiving, the Stigmata tackles high-speed gravel racing, multi-day adventures, and pavement escapes with a gravel bike body and trail bike soul, built light and right for going fast, far, or both on any road, paved or not.

The Skitch brings that same fun-first philosophy to the city, blending lightweight design with the sleek Fazua drive system to turn daily grinds into daily thrills. Stylish, smart, and powerful enough to flatten hills and outrun traffic while looking like a classic fixie from afar, the Skitch delivers stealthy boost for mixed terrain rides and urban adventures. Whether exploring gravel or conquering commutes, Santa Cruz's category-defining geometry, in-house carbon engineering, and durability shine through every pedal stroke.
