About this product
The KHS GRIT 55 2025 is a gravel bike featuring a 55cm frame crafted from 520 DB CrMo steel, known for its durability and ride quality. It's equipped with 700C wheels and a 16-speed (2x8) Shimano Claris drivetrain, offering a good range of gears for varied terrain. Braking is handled by mechanical disc brakes, and it comes with a drop bar and road bike shifters, designed for unisex adults. This 2025 model in gray is built for versatility without suspension.
Our take
I appreciate the KHS GRIT 55 as a no-nonsense gravel bike. The 520 DB CrMo steel frame at 55cm provides a compliant ride, which is a big plus for longer adventures on mixed surfaces. The 2x8 Shimano Claris setup is reliable for entry to mid-level riders, giving enough gears for most climbs and flats. Mechanical disc brakes are a practical choice here, offering consistent performance in various conditions, though they may require a bit more lever force than hydraulics. The 700c wheels with drop bars make it feel like a true gravel machine. For its price, it's a strong contender for anyone looking to get into gravel riding with a durable, non-suspended setup.
