ZULLO Gravel XCR
ZULLO GRAVEL XCR
The Gravel XCR is ZULLO’s most advanced expression of steel — a frame where tradition meets the outer limits of material performance.
Handmade in Verona by Tiziano ZULLO, the Gravel XCR is built from Columbus XCR stainless steel, a material that allows for extraordinary precision, strength, and longevity.
It is not chosen for novelty, but for what it enables: a ride that is both powerful and refined, capable across surfaces yet unmistakably ZULLO in character.
“Steel is not all the same. When you understand how it behaves, you can create something that feels alive — something that adapts to the rider and the road.”
— Tiziano ZULLO
Designed for gravel, but never confined by it, the Gravel XCR moves seamlessly between terrains. It carries speed with ease on the road, while offering confidence and control when the surface becomes unpredictable.
The geometry is carefully balanced — stable without feeling heavy, responsive without ever becoming nervous.
Each frame is made to measure, ensuring that performance is not generalized, but personal. From long gravel routes to fast mixed-terrain rides, the Gravel XCR is built to disappear beneath the rider, leaving only the sensation of movement and connection.
