Description
The 4130 All-Road is built for riders who want to do everything — gravel races, bikepacking missions, commutes, trail days — without buying multiple bikes or compromising on any of them. This build pairs that fully revamped double-butted 4130 Chromoly Steel frame with a fully wireless SRAM AXS drivetrain.
No cables. No housing. No indexing that drifts out over a season of dust and grit.
Platform Highlights
- Fully Wireless SRAM AXS — Your choice of two drivetrains, both with Rival E1 carbon levers and hydraulic disc brakes. Battery and charger included.
- Double-Butted 4130 Chromoly Steel Frame — Thicker tube walls at the ends where they’re welded and stress concentrates, thinner through the middle where they don’t need to be. Strength where it matters, weight shed everywhere else. Tough, repairable, and with a ride quality that carbon can’t replicate. Built for the long haul.
- UDH-Compatible — Required for the hangerless Full Mount derailleurs, and it means no hunting for proprietary hangers anywhere in the world.
- Dropper Post Ready — Internal routing already in place. Add a dropper whenever you’re ready.
- Semi-Internal Cable Routing — Cleaner than fully external, easier to service than fully internal. With AXS there’s far less to route in the first place.
-
Tire Clearance — Plenty of room for real-world rubber in any configuration:
- Frame & Standard Fork: 700c x 55mm (2.2″) or 650b x 60mm (2.4″)
- Frame & Monster Fork (Carbon): 700c x 55mm (2.2″) or 650b x 55mm (2.2″)
- Mounts for Everything — 3 water bottle mounts plus rack, fender, and accessory mounts. Pack it up or strip it down.
Why wireless on a gravel bike
Electronic shifting usually gets sold on speed. On a bike that lives in dust, mud, and grit, it’s worth having for a duller reason: nothing about it degrades between services.
Cable housing contaminates. Cables stretch. Indexing drifts. The shift you had in March isn’t the shift you have in August. A wireless derailleur moves to a position it already knows, every time, regardless of what the bike has been through — and both of these derailleurs bolt through the frame with no hanger to bend and no limit screws to set.

The 700c tire: one of the fastest-rolling 50mm gravel tires you can buy.
The Continental Terra Hardpack TR 50 scored 18.6 watts rolling resistance in independent lab testing at BicycleRollingResistance.com — earning a 4.5/5 “Highly Recommended” rating and putting it among the fastest gravel tires at this width. A flat central tread keeps things quick on pavement and hard-pack, while developed shoulder lugs and Continental’s ShieldWall puncture protection handle the rough stuff. PureGrip compound means grip and durability don’t get traded off against each other. At 50mm, this tire smooths out terrain that would rattle a narrower setup — without giving up speed.

Upgrade
DT Swiss G1800 Spline
- Available in 650b or 700c, tubeless
- DT Swiss 370 hubs — the ratchet system this brand built its name on

Top Pick
Zipp 303 XPLR S
- 700c only. UD carbon, hookless, tubeless
- 32mm internal / 54mm rim depth
- Built around the gravel tire first, not a repurposed road rim — lets you run lower pressure without the tire squirming in corners
- Wide, deep profile designed to cut real aero drag at gravel race speeds
+$1,000.00 (MSRP $1,500.00 – save $500)
SRAM engineered the 303 XPLR platform around the gravel tire first — wide, deep, and hookless — instead of just widening a road rim. The result: lower tire pressure without the squirm, more cornering grip, and real aero gains once you’re moving at gravel race speed.
— As tested by BikeRadar & Cyclingnews
⚠️ The Zipp 303 XPLR S uses hookless rims: tubeless tires only, 50 psi maximum, and approved tires only. The stock Continental Terra Hardpack TR 50mm falls within the rim’s 40–61c range. Check Zipp’s current approved hookless tire list before fitting anything else.
