Focussed on improving the riding experience for road, gravel, and trail riders, Roval Components announces the new Terra Seatpost and Alpinist components that are designed to deliver true performance benefits.
Entering the cockpit market in earnest, the brand complements its Tour De France stage-winning Alpinist CLX wheels with a feathery, 255-gram Alpinist one-piece bar/stem and 136-gram Alpinist seat post to. For gravel riders, Roval is also releasing a new Terra seatpost that offers 18mm of ride-smoothing performance when the road turns rough.
Roval Terra Gravel Seatpost
As with the category-defying characteristics of the Terra CLX and CLX EVO wheelsets, the Roval Terra seatpost is designed to excel on any sort of mixed-terrain ride, from rough chip seal to full-on jeep track. Roval engineers devised a layup that delivers up to 18mm of compliance while keeping the weight low, avoiding complex shapes and mechanical dampers to deliver the best gravel post possible at a race-ready weight. The Terra seatpost and wheelsets truly capture the spirit of gravel performance with road-like weight and trail-ready toughness.

Roval Alpinist Components
Designed to be used as a complete system, the Alpinist family of products operate in harmony – shaving weight, increasing speed and stiffness. Alpinist is made for the mountains, and the new Alpinist cockpit is a class-leading contender for low weight, but this is only part of the Alpinist experience.
Contact points are essential to performance, comfort and speed extend beyond the wheels and frame itself. The Alpinist Cockpit incorporates lessons from the advanced carbon work Roval did with the Alpinist Wheelset, delivering great ride feel and feathery weight.
