Lighter. Simpler. Sharper. The new Ventum GS1 Red XPLR Gravel Bike is built for one thing — speed.
In gravel racing, speed is a constantly evolving equation. The latest generation of the Ventum GS1 Red XPLR with new colorways meets this challenge with increased tire clearance — up to 700x56c in the front, 700x50c in the rear — a lighter, stiffer frame, and an all-new aerodynamic front end.
All anchored by our signature Ventum Race Geometry, a geo trusted by some of the world’s top gravel racers. Fast, but stable. Snappy, but predictable. It’s road bike speed dipped in gravel bike capability. The perfect choice for those driven to go further, faster.
Don’t just ride. Ride quick.
ABOUT THE VENTUM GS1 RED XPLR
Shaped by our obsession with speed, the third generation GS1 is our clearest expression of what a gravel bike should be: simple, fast, and focused.
To make it faster, we increased tire clearance, cut weight, and improved aerodynamics — all without compromising the thing that matters most: handling.
What didn’t change? The geometry. We kept our proven Ventum Race Geometry — aggressive, with a tucked rear end and stable steering. Fitting big tires — especially in the rear — presents real design challenges. Many brands have compromised handling in the name of clearance. We didn’t.
This version of the GS1 gravel bike comes with the top-end SRAM Red XPLR 13-speed electronic groupset and ZIPP 303 XPLR SW wheels. Complete with the Ventum CR5 one-piece gravel cockpit, it’s a race-ready machine.
Fast, but stable. Snappy, yet predictable. It’s road bike speed, dipped in gravel bike capability. A bike for those driven to go further, faster.

“The GS1 is for riders who want gravel speed without giving up precision. Big tires are great — but only if the bike still handles at speed. Ventum nailed that balance, and we make sure every GS1 leaves our shop fully dialed before it ever hits the road or dirt.”
