Avalanche Dust Gravel

Avalanche Dust Gravel 700C at Cycle Zone — fast-rolling 700c gravel bike for tar-to-trail freedom

The Avalanche Dust Gravel 700C is built to take you further on South African backroads and district gravel. A responsive aluminium frame paired with a rigid 700c alloy fork keeps the bike light, direct and low-maintenance, while wide 45c gumwall tyres smooth out corrugations and hold speed on hardpack. The flat-top drop bar delivers comfort on long rides and confident control when the surface turns loose.

A wide-range 1×11 setup (42T up front with an 11–50T cassette) gives you the gears to spin up steep drags and push the pace on the flats. Mechanical disc brakes with 160 mm rotors provide predictable stopping in all weather, and double-wall rims add durability for everyday commute duty, gravel fitness rides, and weekend exploring. Find it ready to size and set up at Cycle Zone in Rustenburg.

If you want a simple, rugged gravel bike that’s quick on tar yet composed on dirt, the Dust 700C nails the sweet spot—comfortable, efficient, and ready for racks, bags and big bottles.
