Radically reimagined, the Nemo Gravel is our most intensely hybridized and extreme gravel adventure bike ever, handcrafted entirely by Cinelli’s in-house frame builder in their Milan headquarters using custom-designed triple-butted tubes from sister company Columbus, less than 100 meters from the frame building shop. Continually refined over a year of testing by riders including former UCI World Champions, New York courier legends, professional snowboarders and many more committed to redefining the limits of what gravel riding can be, the Nemo Gravel is characterized most notably by its completely redesigned geometry, 700 x 47mm tire clearance, and a new, more aggressive design.
It is also a gravel bike that represents the union between steel tradition and advanced technology, offering custom geometry and Legendary Columbus Spirit HSS tubes in triple butted steel. Here is a detailed description of the main features of this frame kit:
