Titanium revolution in 3D technology – meet the DISCOVER Ti-Koloride gravel

Modern technologies are boldly entering the cycling world, and one of the best examples of this process is our new titanium model – DISCOVER Ti-Koloride. By combining classic material with modern 3D printing techniques, we have created a bike that pushes the boundaries of performance and comfort in gravel riding.

Why titanium?

Titanium is a material with unique properties. It is exceptionally durable, resistant to corrosion and extremely light. Additionally, titanium frames have a natural ability to dampen vibrations, providing incredible riding comfort, even on the most demanding routes. It's an investment for years – a bike that will outlive many seasons of intense use.

3D printing – what does it change?

In the DISCOVER Ti-Koloride model, we used advanced 3D printing technology to create key frame nodes. This approach allows for the creation of completely new, previously unachievable shapes. As a result, we gain incredible stiffness where it is most needed, while reducing overall weight to a minimum.

Experience gravel anew with Koloride and our titanium 3D printed model.

Bikepacking in Scotland – 14 Days Among Mountains, Rain, and Fog

14 days in Scotland, only three of which were rain-free. Mountains, fog, canceled ferries, nights spent camping, and gravel routes that make up for all the hardships. Natalia Nykiel took her titanium GRAIN Ti from Koloride on a trip through the Scottish Highlands. She shares what delighted her, what surprised her, and how to prepare for bikepacking in a place where the weather likes to have a mind of its own.

1x or 2x drivetrain for a gravel bike? Which one should you choose?

1x or 2x? I don’t start by talking about the number of chainrings, but rather where and how you’ll be riding. A modern 1x drivetrain can offer a wider gear range than a classic 2x setup, but the larger gaps between gear ratios won’t suit everyone. I’ll explain when I’d choose 1x, when I’d choose 2x, and why the answer isn’t at all obvious when it comes to mountain biking, bikepacking, or ultra-distance rides.

Gravel vs. MTB – Which Bike Should You Choose for Forest Trails?

Gravel or MTB in the woods? It all depends on what your trails are like. Gravel excels on gravel roads, forest trails, and long distances. Roots, rocks, and technical singletrack—that’s MTB territory. We’ll show you where the line is drawn and when it’s worth taking a look at monster gravel bikes.

Morocco from a cyclist's perspective. Gravel, mountains, the ocean, and GRAIN Ti-Koloride

Morocco on a gravel bike? Definitely yes. The Atlantic Ocean, argan groves, mountains, rocky trails, long climbs, awesome descents, and local food. Natalia rode the Moroccan trails on a GRAIN Ti-Koloride and shares what a trip like this is like from a cyclist’s perspective—what’s amazing, what can be exhausting, and how to prepare.

How do you choose a gravel bike that suits your riding style without focusing solely on price?

Buying a gravel bike often starts with one question: How much do I want to spend? That's natural. But there's another question that's much more important: What kind of bike will suit my riding style?

Bicycle Lights: What Really Matters?

Bicycle lights are one of those pieces of equipment that most cyclists don’t start thinking about until they’re riding home after dark for the first time. In practice, however, good lighting comes in handy much more often—during an autumn training ride, a morning commute to work, an all-day trip that unexpectedly runs long, or a multi-day bikepacking adventure.

Bike Configurator – What Is the Bike Design Process Like at Koloride?

In a world of off-the-shelf specs and bikes “for everyone,” more and more people are looking for something that’s a better fit. Not just in terms of appearance, but above all in terms of riding characteristics, comfort, and how they’re used.

Aluminum or titanium gravel bike? The material is just the beginning of the decision-making process.

In gravel cycling, it’s easy to focus solely on the components, weight, or trendy technical features. However, one of the most important decisions remains the choice of frame material. It is this material that largely determines the bike’s character, how it absorbs bumps, how it feels during long rides, and its future customization options. However, there is no single material that is “best for everyone.”
