Baum’s latest ti DBM gravel bike is a mountain bike - a drop bar mountain bike – embracing all things MTB to take your adventure further…
Baum Cycle’s latest DBM titanium gravel bike is actually a mountain bike, a drop bar mountain bike. Fully embracing the fact that modern adventure gravel bikes are pretty much just reworked old-school rigid mountain bikes, Baum goes full MTB with their latest drop bar bike. In other words… proper modern wide XC bike tire clearance, low gears to climb steep mountain grades, and a dropper to send it off sick jumps… even in the drops!Baum Cycles calls their latest DBM “a gravel bike with MTB DNA”.
His solution is 29″ x 2.25″ or 2.4″ mountain bike tires and a proper wide-range 1x MTB drivetrain with a UDH. And instead of trying to just squeeze that into an existing bike, Baum created the new DBM from the ground up for maximum off-road capability. He kind of Frankensteined an XC rear end onto a gravel front triangle, then tweaked the geometry to balance the handling of the bigger tires.
Baum will build the DBM with standard 12x142mm rear spacing to give you max 2.25″ tire clearance. Or go for a Boost-spaced 12x148mm DBM and get 2.4″ clearance like most modern XC or even trail bikes. The standard complete Baum DBM build runs AU$16,192 . That then also gets the same rigid carbon fork choice, stem & seatpost, plus a SRAM GX Eagle AXS Transmission wireless build and alloy DT Swiss G1800 wheels. Plus, Baum has a full range of other pre-configured complete builds and individual upgrades to adapt the dropbar mountain bike to your style of riding .
