Van Rysel Gravel Bikes Now at REI - Your Next Adventure Starts Here.
Van Rysel has always been about pushing boundaries. Now we're taking the next step in our journey.
Starting this Spring, Van Rysel's adventure-ready gravel bikes and aluminum road bikes will be available online and select REI stores across the U.S. For the first time, cyclists can experience Van Rysel's precision engineering and elite level performance at REI, a trusted name in outdoor adventure. Whether you're chasing new routes, exploring gravel backroads, or looking for a fast and efficient road machine, there's now an easier way to ride a Van Rysel bike.
Gravel cycling has opened the door to adventure for riders of all levels, and REI's commitment to inclusivity, education, and service makes them the ideal partner to bring Van Rysel's race-proven performance to more cyclists.
With this partnership, we're excited to introduce more riders to Van Rysel's speed, capability, and quality to ensure they have the support they need to ride with confidence.
This is about growing the sport and building a stronger cycling community, one ride at a time.
The Perfect Ride For Every Road
Our REI lineup includes three gravel bikes and two aluminum road models, each built with the performance, durability and serviceability that define Van Rysel.
Gravel Bikes Built For Exploration
Designed for adventure without limits, our GRVL lineup brings race-proven speed to rugged terrain.
-
GRVL GRX - Performance-driven Shimano drivetrain and an ultra-capable, adventure-ready frame.
- GRVL AF II APEX - Fast, lightweight and built for everything from fire roads to single-track.
- GRVL AF II SWORD - A perfect entry into gravel riding, with a durable, responsive aluminum frame.
Every Van Rysel bike is designed for speed and versatility, featuring:
✔ Carbon Fiber Expedition Fork - Lightweight and strong, with mounts for racks and panniers.
✔ Tubeless-Ready Wheels - Run tubeless for fewer flats and better grip, or use inner tubes for easy maintenance.
✔ Adventure-Ready Geometry - Fast like a road bike, capable like a gravel bike. Best of both worlds.
✔ Standard, Serviceable Components - No proprietary surprises, just easy-to-find, easy-to-replace parts.
✔ Recyclable Aluminum Frame - Durable, light-weight , and made with end-of-life in mind.
