Welcome riders! Today we’re taking a close look at the exciting new Bottecchia Gravel Overland – a bike designed for true adventurers who want both speed and exploration capability.
At the heart of this beauty is a monocoque UD carbon frame, weighing just 1.1 kg for the medium size. The frame features fully integrated cable routing and is built to accommodate tires up to 700×50, giving you plenty of clearance for those muddy trails.
The Overland’s slightly sloping geometry provides a perfect balance between speed and comfort, ideal for those long rides on rough terrain. The redesigned rear stays and carbon layup improve handling stability, especially when you’re loaded up for bikepacking.
Speaking of bikepacking, Bottecchia has included multiple mounting points throughout the frame and fork for water bottles and bags. This bike is ready for adventure straight out of the box.
Aerodynamics have been improved by 8% compared to the previous model, thanks to the integrated ONE GR carbon handlebar, aero carbon seatpost, and integrated clamp. The complete frame and fork package weighs just 1,550 kg – that’s 6% lighter than the previous Gravel Carbon model.
The Overland comes in five sizes from 45 to 56, and you can choose from five different builds, ranging from the electronic Shimano GRX 825 Di2 to the mechanical GRX400 Mix. There’s also a SRAM Rival AXS XPLR option if that’s more your style.
The bike comes in two striking colorways: a bold Verde green or a stunning Blue-Orange combination. Both look absolutely fantastic out on the trails.
Whether you’re racing gravel events, exploring backroads, or planning a multi-day bikepacking adventure, the Bottecchia Gravel Overland delivers the perfect blend of performance and versatility.
