"Cross" isn't big in Australia-yet! But the sports popularity is huge in many European countries including England, Holland and Belgium and has been the fatest growing segment of cycle sport in the USA for the past few years. Sort of a "cross" between mountain biking and road riding, cyclo cross is the sort of sport where fun and competitivness go hand in hand.
Sturdy construction, clearance for larger tyres, and sensible gearing have often been the hallmarks of cyclo cross bikes that have seen them used as commuter bikes where at least part of the journey is off road. Or for many riders seen as an opportunity to add some fun into an otherwise dull commute.
We're sure the competitive side of cyclo cross will take off as witnessed by the strong numbers who have attended recent events conducted by Cycling Victoria who now run Open events, but perhaps many sales will be to those who really should have 2 or 3 different styles of bike but who would rather settle for one.
Great for bike trails, rail trails and gravel country roads, the TCX1 just might be the answer for when you want to go out, no matter what the conditions.
