replacement Recommendations for ‘upgrading’ gravel bike with road tires?

Equipped with the super silent PW-X3 drive unit, the YDX-MORO 05 makes no excuses for being one of the best All-Mountain E-Bikes out there to unleash your adventure. YAMAHA’s racers are usually found on the top block of podiums and they know just how to celebrate. The YDX-MORO 07 Special Edition is Yamaha’s 30th birthday present to the best riders, and passionate collectors, on the planet. If done on the road, this calls for a slick carbon black tire.

The dropper post on this bike is a Fox Transfer Factory with a Shimano remote. A notch down from the 0 model, the Trance Advanced Pro 29 1 features the same frame and finishing schwinn bicycles kit from Giant with a 780mm wide handlebar and the Romero SL saddle. Differing from the 0 the 1 has a Fox 34 Performance Elite Live Valve fork and shock and a FIT4 damper.

We stock a wide variety of bikes, components, accessories, shoes, and apparel from the best brands. You’ll find everything you need for a great ride and a full service department to keep you rolling. Giant are the largest manufacturer of performance bikes in the world, they make frames for many other brands in thier factories. The frames are similar but use different grades of carbon for weight difference, otherwise essentially perform the same, notwithstanding the SL with incorporated seattube. The handlebar and seatpost are designed to smooth the ride, and all models have clearance for 45mm-wide tyres. There are six aluminium Avails, two of them with rim brakes and the other four with discs.

The groupset is Shimano SLX on the shifters, Deore on brakes and cranks. A Defy has a shorter top tube than an equivalent TCR, for example, and a taller head tube to put you into a ride position that’s a bit more relaxed and back-friendly. Specialized takes a similar approach with its Roubaix bikes, Cannondale offers its Synapse range, and many other brands have their equivalents. This one got a fresh look last year and has since only gone up a little in price. The fork comes from Fox and is a 32 Float SC Performance with a GRIP damper.

There are Giant AM wheels in either 29 or 27.5 versions and they’re wrapped with a Maxxis DHF 29×2.5″ and a Maxxis Agressor 29×2.5″ both with EXO casings. The 650b bike gets a pair of Maxxis Ardent Race 27.5×2.6″ tyres. It’s finished with own brand Giant kit with Giant Sole-O grips and Giant Romero Saddle. Not only is the Reign SX the cheapest rig in the range but it’s also the only Reign that comes with 650b wheels. The differences don’t stop there, the RockShox Yari RC Debonair offers 180mm of travel and the RockShox Super Deluxe Coil Select allows for 160mm of travel.

The TCR Advanced models are performance road bikes that are designed to be lightweight, stiff and agile, roughly the equivalent of a Trek Emonda or Specialized Tarmac. The Talon 3 comes with an SR Suntour XCE coil-sprung steel steerer fork and it’s worth mentioning that the XS frame comes with 80mm of travel. On this one there’s a Shimano 3×8 drivetrain with a Altus derailleur and Tektro HDC hydraulic brakes. Everything else including the finishing kit and wheels stays the same apart from the tyres. It gets 100mm of squish at the front with just 90mm at the rear aided by the Maestro suspension platform. As it’s an XC thoroughbred, there’s no 650b option for the Anthem.
