Introducing the Gravity X-Rod Series: Most bikes function great for one or two purposes; Gravity X-Rod models function for many more uses than typical bikes. X-Rod fusion of motorcycle looks and hybrid /comfort /cruiser /trail /commuter design makes each X-Rod a Super Sport Utility Vehicle.

At home on streets and trails; take it to the beach or the woods; quick fitness rides; or commute in cities; add racks on front or rear; mount computer, lights, or phone on crossX handlebar. WTB 27.5 tires roll out fast but resist sinking in sand or snow or mud. Everyone who rides an X-Rod is amazed and happy!
