We designed the Cross to help you escape the daily routine via a little two-wheeled distraction. Whether it's an early evening ride after work or a longer jaunt at the weekend, its lively handling and high quality components will make every exploration a pleasure. We've not forgotten day-to-day practicality, either. With 30 gears, hydraulic disc brakes, mudguard and rack attachment points and a superb RockShox Paragon Silver suspension fork, the Cross has the functionality and reliability to make light work of any journey, any time. Tarmac or forest trail, up in the hills or on the city streets, the Cross is ready to go.

Our engineers wanted to make the Cross as beautiful as it is practical. So, new for 2018, this light and lively frame features smooth welding throughout for crisp, clean looks. A tapered head tube, double butted aluminium tubeset and 3D forged dropouts all contribute to the elegant looks, adding stiffness and strength where it's needed without piling on unnecessary weight. Cables are routed internally for longer service intervals and better aesthetics. We've not forgotten the practical touches, either: there's a replaceable derailleur hanger and multi-functional dropouts ready to accept mudguards, luggage rack and our Easy Mount kickstand.
