Gravel Bike Review: Poseidon X $600 Gravel Bike!

"Have you ever wanted to get away for a short time? Clear your head for some peaceful moments as you explore the town you have lived in with a completely new perspective. Poseidon Bike takes its name from the God of the sea, a place where you can find serenity, stillness, and at a moment’s notice discover the strength the sea has." - Poseidon Bike

Poseidon is a consumer direct business, meaning they don't go through any extra distribution channels. "Our bikes are manufactured in a factory that we own and operate which allows us to ensure quality while giving you an affordable price. Our legacy of in-house manufacturing gives us the power and experience to source, design and build the highest-value bikes and components on the market."

The Poseidon X is the company's entry into the gravel / adventure bike market albeit at a budget price. Priced at just $US 600, the Poseidon X features:

6061 Double Butted Hydroformed Aluminium Frame
Carbon Fork with tapered Aluminium Steerer
Shimano Claris 8-speed Drivetrain
Tektro Mechanical Disc Brakes
46/34 2x Crankset paired to an 11-34 8-Speed Cassette
Super comfy Poseidon saddle - very similar to the Fizik Arione Tri

Whilst I did not race this bike, I subjected the bike to many hours and miles / kms of training with its stock 700c wheels and Kenda Small Block tyres.

There are many choices for gravel bikes circa 2019, I hope this review helps you to make an informed decision about a future gravel bike purchase.

Thank you for watching.
