Today Gavin Bikes announces the introduction of three new road bikes for 2009:  Gavin Nuovo Triathlon TT Bike, Gavin Acele Road Racing Bike, and the Gavin Linea 2009 Full Carbon Road Bike.  The popular Gavin Durus  has been redesigned by adding new light weight aluminum forks and a new wheel set. The 2009 bikes have just arrived and sales are reminiscent of the Durus launch.

In 2008 Gavin Bikes introduced the Gavin Durus. Consumers responded with such resounding enthusiasm that we quickly sold out of bikes! Based on the overwhelming success of the Gavin Durus our designers created three new bike models and updated the DURUS. The Gavin DURUS remains the least expensive Shimano STI equipped road bike.

The Gavin Durus is an attractive road bike ready to take riders anywhere they want to go. An affordable, superbly equipped entry level road bike, perfect for anything from long tours to local fitness cycling. This versatile and inexpensive bike will provide years of enjoyment.  A comparable bike like the The KHS Flite 300, Giant OC3, and the Trek 1.2 are made with nearly identical components - but are nearly double the price!

The Gavin Acele is made of the finest grade aluminum, is ultra-lightweight, resilient and has an excellent strength to weight ratio. Coupled with carbon forks and superior shimano 105 components, the ACELE is an extremely responsive road bike for those wanting to invest in a higher performing road bike. A comparable high performing road bike like the Trek 2.1, Giant Defy 1, Fuji Newest 1.0, Jamis Ventura Race, KHS Flite 320, GT GTR Series 2 are made with nearly identical components - compare and save.

The Gavin Nuovo Road Racing / Triathlon frame is made with the finest grade aluminum. The Nuovo is an extremely responsive triathlon bike, and a perfect fit for entry level triathletes or racers. For individuals starting out in triathlons or those who have a few under their belt, the Nuovo will help you exceed your goals for the next event. The Gavin Nuovo is the best valued tri-bike on the market today. For those entry level triathletes wanting a great value, compare the Nuovo to the Trek 1.5, Giant Defy 2, Schwinn Fastback Comp, Fuji Newest 2.0, Jamis Ventura Sport, KHS Flite 500, GT GTR Series 4.

The Gavin Linea is a full carbon road bike with Shimano components and a high modulus carbon fiber frame with replaceable derailleur hanger. Why buy an aluminum frame bike with Ultegra components from Trek or Specialized when you can get the full carbon Linea for less.

The Gavin Durus sets new standards for a light weight, comfortable, sleek road bike at an incredibly affordable price. The Gavin Nuovo is perfect for entry level triathalon bike due to its exceptionally responsive nature and components. The Gavin Acele, with its superior Shimano components is receiving high acclaim from experienced cyclists for being lightweight and the price is, "...astoundingly low". Last but not least, the Gavin Linea, the full carbon is  simply the most competitively priced full carbon road bike on the market today. Each bike retails 50% below comparable bikes from other manufacturers like Trek, Giant, and KHS.

Gavin road bikes are designed to provide riders with a sleek, comfortable cycle at an unbeatable price. The Gavin models appeal to those who wish to purchase an excellent quality bike at an unbeatable price.
