Crux DSW Comp — SRAM Apex XPLR
Crux DSW Comp
SRAM Apex XPLR · E5 Premium Aluminum · DSW · 9.37kg

The Crux DSW is more than the lightest alloy gravel bike ever made. We took everything we learned creating the carbon Crux and used our patented D'Aluisio Smartweld to make it a reality in alloy. We've created the most capable, nimble, balanced, and responsive alloy gravel bike ever made for fast, fun, high-performance riding. And yeah, it's the lightest too.

  • E5 Premium Aluminum + DSW: 1399g frame (56cm unpainted), hydroformed tubing, patented DSW welds.
  • S-Works FACT Carbon Fork: 12x100mm thru-axle, flat-mount disc.
  • SRAM Apex XPLR: 12-speed mechanical, 40T / 11-44t gravel gearing.
  • 47c / 650b x 2.1" Tire Clearance: Same as carbon Crux — go anywhere at full gas.
  • UDH Dropout: Universal Derailleur Hanger, future-proof.
  • DT Swiss G540 Wheels: Tubeless-ready alloy clinchers, 24mm internal width.
  • Pathfinder Pro 2BR 700x38c: 2Bliss Ready, hooks up over nasty terrain.
  • Performance Gravel Geometry: 72mm BB drop, race-inspired fit, 'cross heritage.

Complete build at 9.37kg (56cm). Six sizes: 49, 52, 54, 56, 58, 61.

E5 Premium Aluminum Frame — DSW Technology
1399g frame (56cm raw, unpainted). Hydroformed aluminum tubing with D'Aluisio Smartweld — single-piece downtube and bottom bracket for better, stronger welds. Threaded BB, tapered head tube, UDH dropout.
D'Aluisio Smartweld (DSW)
Patented engineering process using hydroforming to precisely match tube-to-tube joints. Creates a lighter frame that can be twice as durable as traditional alloy. Fine-tuned alloy properties for a ride previously impossible without carbon.
SRAM Apex XPLR 12-speed Mechanical
Gravel-specific gearing with 40T / 11-44t range. Apex XPLR rear derailleur, Apex hydraulic disc brakes. Wide range for steep climbs and fast descents.
47c / 650b x 2.1" Tire Clearance
More clearance means more capability. With Diverge-level tire clearance, Crux DSW takes you anywhere you can imagine at full gas.
Performance Gravel Geometry
Longer reach for better weight distribution, lower stack for performance first position. 72mm BB drop hits the sweet spot between nimble and stable. Responsive at the pedals, supple in the saddle.
