VIDEO: TrailHunter reviews the Raw gravel bike
“Who’s going to buy this? Which lunatic? And in pink? What even is this?” Trailhunter’s colleague Jirka Kuruc set out to test one of our most popular gravel bikes – the Raw 3. How did it turn out? Watch the video.
“It’s this beautifully pink, aluminum...” The original color is undoubtedly the first thing that makes the Raw 3 gravel bike stand out. And it’s far from the last.
Just like Martin in his review, Jirka also appreciated the more classic frame design, thanks to which “the gravel feels more agile and rides better on forest trails and paths.”
He also highlighted the same geometry as the carbon Raw gravel bikes and the plenty of mounts for attaching bags, bottles, and other gear so that “the heart of not only the hardcore bikepacker but also the casual adventurer who wants to carry as much as possible on their bike can be absolutely satisfied.”
The quietness of the entire drivetrain and especially the electronic shifting, which is “an absolute delight... an incredibly addictive feature.”
And the overall verdict?
“There are people among us who would rather buy a well-equipped Octavia than a shaved-down Superb. With electric seats, an electric trunk lid, and an electrically heated windshield. In short, they trade status and admiring looks for comfort and self-indulgence. And that’s exactly the case with this Pells.”
Check out the full review in the video. It’s only eight minutes long, making it the perfect coffee break companion :)
