Gravel bike FAQs

The MMR is OBED's most capable adventure gravel bike, with up to 2.25 in of tire clearance and internal downtube storage for bikepacking and rough terrain. The GVR is the performance choice, with aerodynamic frame shaping, 56 mm clearance, and race-oriented geometry for speed. Both use carbon frames with suspension-corrected geometry.

Clearance ranges from 49 mm on the GVR Gen 1 up to 2.25 in (roughly 57 mm) on the MMR. The Boundary fits 50 mm tires and the current GVR fits up to 56 mm, with room left for mud and fenders on most models.

The Boundary is OBED's best-value gravel bike, starting at $1,999. It's a carbon-framed, versatile all-rounder with 50 mm tire clearance, three bottle-cage mounts, and front and rear rack options.
