The gravel bike landscape has taken many different identities as its evolved over the years. And Colorados Moots Cycles has been there since 2013 with their Routt titanium gravel bike. After teasing the new Routt at the MADE show, Moots has officially announced the new Routt, and condensed Routt line, in both nomenclature and bikes offered.(Photos / Moots Cycles)The new version focuses on where gravel riding has gone over the last decade. In the last ten years, weve seen gravel bikes come equipped with bigger tires. Also, gravel rigs built for rougher terrain, and bike geometry that blurs the line between long gravel roads and quick singletrack. But out of all that change, bigger tire clearance seems to take the cake as the biggest selling point for some riders.Moots knows that and has added tire clearance to the updated Routt. And they didnt do it by merely stuffing in more tire clearance and calling it a day. No, Moots says the new Routt is built around a 50mm tire, but can fit up to a 57mm tread.Moots says the Routts bigger tire clearance gives riders more low-pressure grip and composure on the rough stuff, while still keeping the snappy, direct ride feel thats always defined it.The RouttSome of the new features of the Routt are in the engineering details. For instance, the fancy new 3D-printed yoke. This is where Moots pulls off that big, up to 57mm tire clearance. Plus, you can still run a 48t front chainring up front.Moots new, redesigned carbon gravel fork has a new D shaped steerer. This allows for completely integrated brake lines through their titanium stem. This gives the Routt a super clean front end.The Routt also sports fully machined UDH dropouts. These pretty dropouts are machined in-house in Steamboat Springs, Colorado. They keep the bike up to date for todays modern drivetrains, as well as future-proofing the Routt.Moots made sure to offer the ability to pick from a broader selection of drivetrain options. The new Routt can be built up using everything from a traditional gravel drivetrain to a wide-range mullet setup. This makes the Routt more flexible and versatile.Moots Takes Two Different RouttsMoots is offering the Routt as a premium frame upgrade rather than a separate Routt model. This will give riders a frame platform with two distinct tubing options.Moots says the new Routt replaces the Routt 45, Routt CRD, and the Routt RSL in their gravel lineup. So, that means going forward, Moots will offer the Routt in a single platform, with the RSL offered as a premium tubing upgrade. That makes things simpler, as you can see below.The Standard RouttThis version uses straight-gauge 3/2.5 titanium tubing that Moots says offers the typical Moots ride. That means balanced, durable, and well-suited to long days and mixed terrain.Straight-gauge 3/2.5 titaniumBalanced ride feelBuilt for all-around gravel useRoutt RSL (available early 2027)The RSL upgrade uses ride-tuned, double-butted titanium tubing. This not only removes weight, but also sharpens the feel when under power. So, it was designed and fabricated for riders who want to build up a lighter, more race-focused version.Double-butted RSL titanium tubingLower frame weightQuicker, more direct feelBuilt with performance and weight savings in mindRoutt GeometryRoutt Retail & Frame DetailRetail: $5,499 (frameset), RSL version and pricing due in 2027Routt Force: $9,999Routt Force Mullet: $10,199Routt Red: $12,499Pricing for Routt RSL Force, RSL Force Mullet, and RSL Red will come in 2027.Frame DetailsFork Specs: Moots carbon gravel fork, 395 axle-to-crown, D-shaped steerer for internal routingFork Offsets: 50 & 57Frame Material: Straight Gauge 3/2.5 Ti, RSL upgrade: double-butted RSL tubingWheel Size: 700cHeadset: Chris King i7 ZS44 upper & EC44 lowerBrake Hose Routing: D-shaped steer, internal through stemShifter Housing Routing: Electronic routing standard mechanical shift not offered internallySeatpost Diameter: 27.2Seatpost Collar Diameter: 34.9Number of Bottles: Two in front triangle, and third H2O underside of DTAdditional Accessory Mounts: Bento mount standard, fender mounts standard on base model but there are no fenders on the RSL, upper rack mounts optional on base modelMax Chainring Size: 48t 1XChainline Spec: Gravel Chainline 47.5mmBottom Bracket Spec: BSA 68Brake Mount: Flat MountRear Rotor Size: 160mmFront Rotor Size: 160mmFront Axle Spec: 10012Rear Axle Spec: 14212Rear Derailleur Hanger: UDHFront Derailleur Compatible: YesDesign Tire Size: 50mmMax Tire Size: 57mmDropper Post Compatibility: Electronic & mechanicalRoutt Build Kits OfferedThe Routt is one frame that can go from either a light race build to a wide-range mullet setup without turning into a niche, over-specialized bicycle.
