2016 GT Grade Alloy Sora
2016 GT Grade Alloy Sora is a gravel road bike built around a hydroformed alloy frame, tapered carbon fork, and Shimano Sora shifting for long-distance riding.
Description
For journeys, not destinations
Setting out on your bike is never just about getting to your destination, it’s about the journey you take every time your wheels hit the ground. Loaded up on features that make long days in the saddle feel easy, like a low bottom bracket for added stability and extra tire clearance for knobbier rubber, the Grade Alloy will get you there, but prefers the long way around.
