From family vacations with a tent to a quick gravel ride in the afternoon: With the Michl, the young company VPace is launching one of the first gravel bikes specifically for children. The lightweight aluminum frame with carbon fork is available in two sizes and ensures real riding fun on any surface - whether it's the school run, forest trail or bikepacking adventure.

While adults have long been able to choose from a wide range of gravel bikes, children have so far lacked a suitable counterpart. VPace has responded to this gap with a well thought-out concept: sporty geometry, a shortened rear triangle, child-friendly components and genuine gravel handlebars with an 18-degree flare make the Michl a versatile companion - even on challenging terrain.

A Shimano GRX 600 transmission with eleven-speed gearing and hydraulic disc brakes are used. Schwalbe G-One tires and lightweight wheels provide traction and comfort. The Michl weighs around eight kilograms and meets the requirements of category 2. It can also be converted into a racing bike or cyclocross bike.

The VPace Michl is available from a height of 135 centimetres, in three colors and from a price of 1799 euros.
