Revel Rover review: The gravel bike that keeps it smooth

Revel Rover gravel bike

Each time I write a new review covering a gravel bike, I tend to explain what a huge range you can find. Just look at our best gravel bikes buyers guide and you'll spot options aimed at gravel racing, bikepacking, and adventure riding. Despite that, I still find myself genuinely surprised riding new options with a focus that's different from what I've seen before. The Revel Rover is one of those bikes. It comes from a mountain bike brand and brings with it a unique take on what gravel cyclists might want.
