The original gravel race bike is better than ever with the Warbird C Force AXS Wide. Put your best performance forward with a carbon fiber frameset, our gravel race geometry, and shock-absorbing Class 5 VRS™. Frame and fork cargo mounts hold your snacks and layers for day rides or even bikepacking gear if you’re going long. The SRAM Force AXS Wide drivetrain grants you precision shifting and a wide gear range for the highs and lows of every route.
