GRAVEL, WITH A CO-DRIVER’S NERVE
We’re unapologetic fans of rally racing at Spot. The thrill of finely tuned vehicles blazing through wild landscapes, surging up mountain roads, drifting through corners, taking flight over dunes; it stokes our lust to cover more ground. And it fed our desire to engineer a gravel bike that invokes the same adventurous, bratty, balls-to-walls spirit.
Like its namesake, the Rallye thrives in all conditions. Gravel. Pavement. Sand. Mud. All of the above. It’s a point-to-point or big loop speed machine that perseveres on any terrain.
RIDE CHARACTER
Short stays, a stretched top tube and a short stem — planted at speed, and never skittish.
Let’s start with the rally-car-like handling—too many gravel bikes are flighty and skittish. The Rallye retains the soul of a sports car in its geometry and handling. Super-short chainstays (415 mm rear center) provide nimble handling, fast acceleration, and efficient pedaling by keeping the rear wheel tucked beneath your center of gravity.
The stem is short for synaptic control over the front wheel, and the top tube has been stretched for a commanding riding position. That short stem works in concert with a tuned fork offset and slackened head tube angle for a positive, planted steering feel, and gives cornering grip reminiscent of a 2.4" trail tire.
The truth is, we love rally racing because we’re mountain bikers at heart. Both disciplines require technical precision at speed, in the most challenging habitats. The Rallye solves the conundrum of what rig a mountain biker should ride to mix it up or cross-train. Mountain bikers will feel at home on the Rallye—even on singletrack—thanks to its stack height, head angle, fork rake, and overall geometry (plus suspension fork and dropper post compatibility).
FRAME ENGINEERING
The Rallye’s elevated and asymmetric drive-side chainstay may be its most striking feature, but it’s not an aesthetic flourish. Form follows function at Spot. The e-stay enables us to offer 50-tooth chainring compatibility and big tire clearance while maintaining a road bike Q factor. Go ahead and peg the tach!
In rally racing, tire choice varies depending on the course and the discipline. That’s why the Rallye offers clearance front and rear for tires up to 700 x 53/2.1. Not all gravel is the same. You deserve options, with no compromises.
Slenderized seat stays offer vertical compliance to minimize fatigue during long outings on rutted and stuttered forest service roads. The stout front triangle and steerer tube deliver lateral and torsional rigidity for stable carving, plus efficient power transfer when you need to hit the gas.
CONSTRUCTION
The Rallye frame and its components are constructed using the most advanced processes in the composites industry. Instead of outdated tube-to-tube or conventional bladder molding, our carbon construction facility fabricates each frame using a rigid EPS foam mandrel. The mandrel is custom formed for the Rallye, and its parts are shaped in a bespoke mold that represents the shape of the volume contained within the part. The carbon fiber plies are arranged precisely on the mandrel. This technique ensures that nothing can move out of position when the mandrel and layup are inserted into the curing mold.
During the curing process the EPS foam expands uniformly, creating outward pressure on the carbon plies. The foam ensures even distribution of compaction forces on the layup throughout the part. This prevents voids and delamination. The control and consistency of this approach are unrivaled. The benefits of the highest-end materials and our superior construction methods ensure that each Rallye frame delivers years of performance and quality. Our production facility works for some of the best names in high-end bikes. We feel so strongly about our frame durability that we back every Rallye frame with a lifetime warranty.
Honed on the Rocky Mountain Front Range, field tested on the gravel roads of Colorado’s high desert scrublands and rugged grasslands. We crafted the Rallye to fulfill the aspirations of mountain bikers and adventurous souls who’ve dreamt of a drop-bar bike to call their own.
COLORWAYS
We chose colorways to capture the spirit of adventure that the Rallye embodies: Limestone Grey for the Kansas chalk rock of gravel racing’s holiest grail, and Twilight Purple for chasing sunsets to the horizon.
We have a proven history of innovation and an unwavering commitment to top-level engineering and design. From our groundbreaking Living Link suspension technology to our CenterTrack belt system invention, Spot Brand creates bikes that go faster, last longer, maximize your enjoyment, and simplify your cycling lifestyle.
The Lumpkin family founded Avid in 1991 and grew the component company into America’s largest brake manufacturer. After selling Avid and acquiring Spot, we turned our attention to building better bikes. First, we revolutionized the reliability and simplicity of belt drives by creating the CenterTrack design that has made Gates Carbon Drive the world’s best-selling and most durable bicycle belt system on the market.
Reviews
I totally love the opportunity to do a real ride — well over an hour on real authentic mtb/gravel bike terrain. I took a test ride of a Ryve and when I got back I handed them my credit card to buy one. I’m still checking out other gravel bikes, but the Rallye is a darn nice bike — super responsive to power inputs, smooth ride on rougher terrain.
Amazing bike component set up customer service, color scheme, robust overall great company, and bike
Snappy, solid, so well built! Have a handful of rides so far - chompin at the bit for more
Purchased for medium to long gravel hauls and decked out for lite camping. Of course, you'd want to break it in a bit and run it on your local trails before hopping on a weekend ride. It so happens my local trails are a mix of road, gravel, and mountain trails. I started on the road and quickly moved to gravel where it is very much at home.
But then the occasional mountain trail comes along. A bit of steep mixed with loose. Sharp turns with big penalties for not staying locked in. I am really pleased how it handles what I'd usually apply my Rocker to.
Can this be the all-around, one bike for every purpose? Well, that depends. At 55 I am not hucking off of drops, nor would I try on this. But as long as you can stop a 700x45 tire, I'd feel fairly confident the Rallye can handle it. Let me drive that point home: the bike can handle the terrain, but it cannot ignore physics. 200lbs of bike, gear, and rider cannot stop on a steep washout with 45mm tires.
My only regret is that I didn't buy a Rallye sooner! The ability to take it on trails I would previously ride my Mayhem is a testament to the Rallye and the team at Spot.
