Is it a road bike? Is it a gravel bike? It’s both - depending on how you build it up, the new Wilier Rave SLR will be just as happy on slick tarmac as it will on the rough stuff. Alex needed a little extra help with this first look, so we called in a favour with local plaid enthusiast and “Privateer” - Gravel Alex.
