Shimano GRX Di2 825, Fulcrum Rapid Red wheels.
The G4-X is a racing-derived bike, a very close relative of the V4Rs used by Pogačar and co. in the World Tour. It is a carbon monocoque, as stiff, responsive, and light as it is balanced and fun to ride. This model is designed by Colnago for the fast gravel rider, for those who compete and venture out on dirt roads in search of maximum performance.
**Colnago for gravel racing**
The G4-X is the new Colnago designed for gravel racing. This model is intended to replace the G3-X, bringing back the best of what the Cambiago-based brand has learned from its important and storied experience in off-road cycling, particularly in cyclocross, and in road racing with the V-Series bikes, the carbon monocoque bikes made for the UAE Emirates and UAE ADQ WorldTour Teams.
**Colnago G4-X Optimized for CX as well**
The Colnago G4-X, despite being born for fast gravel, is a frame that is also homologated and approved by the UCI as a Cyclocross frame. This renews Colnago's presence on the cyclocross stage, where it was previously represented by the G3-X, used by athletes like Silvia Persico and Ryan Kamp.
**Fruit of Colnago's off-road experience**
The G4-X is the result of Colnago's off-road experience, which has dominated and won everything that could be won in CX. The brand's most notable victories include those of Sven Nys, winner of six CX world championships, and Van Aert, who won two off-road world championships with Colnago.
**Perfect balance of elements**
It's easy to quantify a bicycle by numbers: how much it weighs, what angles it has, and what aerodynamic drag coefficient it possesses. Yet in the end, it is not the numbers that define the pedaling experience. The riding experience results from many factors, and it is these that we focused on to design our fast gravel bike. This is what makes a Colnago unique: the immediate feeling of comfort and ease of riding, even in difficult conditions, with the assurance of having a bike that ranks among the best in terms of lightness, responsiveness, and aerodynamics.
The G4-X is the result of optimizing all those factors that are crucial when you need to compete or push hard on dirt roads:
● Handling
● Lightness
● Downhill rideability
● Stability
● Frame responsiveness
● And, like all Colnago bikes, surprisingly wonderful to ride.
The perfect harmony of elements, a balanced bike. A bike that demands to be pedaled fast, without sacrificing handling and riding pleasure.
