Collaboration : Origine Cycles X GravelUp
A common vision of Gravel
Gravel is a state of mind. It is the freedom to ride where you want, when you want. It is also a community of passionate people whose primary motivation is not performance or competition, but the deep desire to reconnect with nature. Gravel fans share a love of outdoor adventures and an environmentally friendly lifestyle.
It is to develop this philosophy of Gravel that Origine and GravelUp join forces. Gravel bikes as Origine designs them are particularly versatile bikes, combining comfort and performance. They are made to support you on relatively long experiences and to share great adventures as during GravelUp expeditions, through the beautiful mountain ranges and landscapes of Europe.
