Following the huge success of the Tripster AT and ATR we wanted to offer a gravel adventure bike that was even more versatile but no less
capable than the Tripster AT or ATR for all seasons.
The Kinesis G2 adventure bike is nimble off the line, fast handling and plenty tough enough for rough and tumble of UK gravel riding. The
perfect four seasons bike for the rider that wants an adventure gravel bike, all year round for British summer and winter weather.
• More capable than a road bike.
• More comfortable than a cross bike.
• More versatile than an out and out gravel bike.
Two decades of bike design have taught us to never stand still and to question everything we see and do to make better product for riders.
What worked ten years ago may not be suitable for today's rider, so we are constantly evolving. This has lead us to our new'Kinesis Rider Fit Design'process.
A semi sloping frame on the smallest bike has not only reduced the stand over height but has also brought the comfort in line with our larger
models. Short chain-stays alongside the revised position gives the Kinesis G2 outstanding road characteristics. Low Bottom Bracket, makes the
G2 extremely capable off road. Flared Handlebars, short Stem and full Pannier Rack mounts, means the Kinesis G2 Bike is ready for any adventure.
