revolt 1 / alpine green

The Giant Revolt 1 in Alpine Green is arguably the benchmark for high-value, do-it-all gravel bikes. Built on Giant’s proprietary ALUXX-Grade Aluminium frame, it brings the versatile geometry of the carbon "Advanced" models to a rugged, accessible platform. The Alpine Green finish is a glossy, deep earth tone that perfectly suits the bike’s adventurous nature, designed to look just as good covered in mud as it does sparkling clean. Unlike many alloy competitors, the Revolt 1 features a full carbon fork, which significantly reduces front-end weight and absorbs vibrations from washboard gravel roads.

This model is equipped with a dedicated Shimano GRX 400 2x10 groupset, providing the durability and chain retention needed for rough terrain. The rear derailleur features a clutch mechanism to prevent chain slap, while the sub-compact gearing (48/32T) ensures you have the low gears necessary for steep, loaded climbs. A standout feature for this price point is the Flip Chip dropout system, allowing you to adjust the wheelbase: keep it short for snappy cyclocross-style handling, or flip it to the "Long" position to extend stability and unlock massive tire clearance up to 53mm.

Key Technologies

• ALUXX Aluminum: A performance-level 6061 alloy with single-butted tubes to produce strong, lightweight framesets for a variety of different bikes and riding styles.

• D-Fuse Technology: The D-shaped seatpost and handlebar are engineered to flex slightly under load, adding compliance and reducing rider fatigue on rough surfaces.

• Flip Chip Dropout: A two-position dropout hardware that allows riders to change the geometry and tire clearance to suit the terrain.

• Tubeless System: Fewer flat tires, greater traction, less rolling resistance, and a smoother, faster ride.
