The Liv Devote Advanced 1 in Gloss Ember Rose is a high-performance women’s carbon gravel bike designed for everything from fast unpaved races and forest fire roads to long-distance adventure touring.
The build is driven by a wireless 1x12 SRAM Apex XPLR AXS electronic drivetrain, pairing a 38T single chainring with an 11-44T cassette for clean, wide-ratio gear changes without a front derailleur.
