CRUX DSW COMP EMDMET/FJDMET 58
91426-5258

The Crux DSW is more than the lightest aluminum gravel bike ever made. We took everything we learned from making the carbon Crux and used our patented D'Aluisio Smartweld to realize it in aluminum. We created the most capable, agile, balanced, and responsive aluminum gravel bike ever made for fast, fun, high-performance riding. And yes, it's also the lightest. Some might call it a carbon copy, but we call it the Crux DSW.

Lightest weight

Weighing only 1399 grams*, the Crux DSW is the lightest aluminum gravel frame in the world. Combine that with our Fact12r Crux carbon fork and a performance-oriented design, and a complete Crux DSW weighs just 9.37 kg - no other aluminum gravel bike can compare.

Maximum power

More clearance means more power - that's why the Crux DSW has the same tire clearance as its carbon sibling - 47mm and up to 2.1" on a 650b wheel. Combine this with the strong and lightweight aluminum frame and the Crux DSW can take you anywhere you want.

Ultra-responsive

Responsive to the pedals. Smooth in the saddle. We used D'Aluisio Smartweld to fine-tune the aluminum properties to deliver a ride that was previously impossible without carbon and pair it with the same geometry and race-inspired fit as the carbon Crux. A longer reach provides better weight distribution for fast, confident steering, while a lower stack ensures a performance-oriented front position. With a bottom-bracket drop of 72 mm, we found the sweet spot between agile and stable.

D'Aluisio Smartweld

D'Aluisio Smartweld - or DSW - is a patented engineering process that uses hydroforming to precisely fit the tube-to-tube connections for better, stronger welds and ultimately a lighter frame that can be twice as durable as a traditional aluminum frame. Our Smartweld technique helps us create a unique one-piece down tube and bottom bracket for the Crux, saving weight and increasing responsiveness.

  • Capable: 47c/650b x 2.1" tire width options. More clearance means more power. With tire width options at Diverge level, the Crux takes you anywhere you can imagine.
  • Responsive: Agile, smooth, and reactive. Responsive to the pedals. Smooth in the saddle. With performance gravel geometry and race-tuned fit inspired by Crux's iconic history in 'cross'.

CRUX SW FJDMET/DLMMET 49

We made the Crux, the lightest gravel bike in the world, even lighter. This bike combines wide tire clearance with performance-oriented gravel geometry. Thanks to a UDH derailleur hanger and the all-new SRAM RED XPLR group, the S-Works Crux became 102 grams lighter. Equipped with Roval Terra CLX II wheels, a Terra handlebar, Alpinist seatpost, S-Works Power saddle with Mirror technology, and Pathfinder Pro tires, the new S-Works Crux with SRAM RED XPLR is also very high-end. Lightweight: S-Works 12r frame of 725 grams. We used the technologies that made the Aethos so light for the Crux. The result? A gravel bike that climbs magnificently, floats over the toughest terrain, and weighs less than a full bottle in your bottle cage. Versatile: clearance for 47c/650b x 2.1 inch tires for even more options. With the same clearance for wider tires as the Diverge, the Crux will take you wherever you want to go, at full speed. Responsive: agile, reactive, and comfortable. Featuring performance-oriented gravel geometry and a sporty riding position inspired by the iconic performances of the Crux in cyclocross. The Crux is now equipped with a UDH (universal derailleur hanger) and the new SRAM RED XPLR group, with a 13-speed cassette ranging from 10 to 46 teeth, power meter, ergonomic brake levers, and calipers requiring up to 80% less force.
