Experience it yourself. Gravel roads, single trails, rough country paths. The traction-rich, comfort-oriented Topstone Carbon gravel bike is a true all-rounder that knows no limits.

The best gravel bike for all adventure-hungry explorers. Free yourself from any restrictions and discover the unknown. With its unique KingPin rear suspension, the Topstone Carbon is ready for any tour, whether bikepacking trips, fast and enjoyable gravel rides, or technical trail adventures. Wherever you go, nothing is impossible.

Full traction for full throttle!
Maximum traction and maximum confidence in every corner. Thanks to the unmatched grip and comfort of the KingPin rear suspension, gravel paths, remote roads, and lonely connecting routes lose their intimidation. KingPin operates at maximum efficiency with only one bearing, without the complexity of dampers or additional bearings.

Tour-ready
With its countless mounting points and generous tire clearance, this bike was developed for those who prefer to ride off paved roads. Whether it's a short day trip or a multi-day bikepacking adventure – the Topstone Carbon is ready.

Simply brilliant. Simply thrilling.
In developing the Topstone Carbon, simplicity, durability, user-friendliness, and compatibility were top priorities. KingPin requires no adjustments or maintenance. In addition, the cables/lines are routed internally without rattling. An external seatpost clamp and a threaded BSA bottom bracket further simplify maintenance. Less maintenance, more free time.

Never has it been easier to ride harder
Improved geometry and riding position for a safe, relaxed, and comfortable riding experience that still radiates pure riding pleasure. Ride further, longer, and faster!

Full attack
Plenty of space for gear and water, a "multi-position" mounting point on the down tube and additional mounting points on the top tube, seat tube, and underneath the down tube. There are even mounting points on the fork.
