Video: Kinesis Tripster AT
The video captures what the bike's intended uses are: namely road, gravel and muddy trail adventures.
Although off-road and gravel is where the Tripster, with its sturdy fat tubes and 40mm tyres, will really come into its own, it goes without saying that the bike looks more than suitable for commutes too. The video shows the sort of riding an adventure/gravel bike can be used for by cyclists, emphasising the fun types of riding you can get up to on an adventure/gravel bike around the roads and trails of Britain.
Our man Dave Arthur is reviewing a Tripster AT right now: his test build (shown in the unboxing video above) is a non-production spec, and comes with a Shimano XT Di2 mountain bike rear mech operated by R785 Di2 shifters, 40t Praxis Wave Tech chainrings on an Alba chainset, Reynolds ATR carbon wheels with VeeTire Rail 40mm tyres and a Ritchey finishing kit. This build would come in at £3,500, although the price of a frameset is £699.99 on the Kinesis website and a stock build version with Sram Rival 1x gearing, Crosslight wheels and FSA finishing kit comes in at £1699.98.
Jack has been writing about cycling and multisport for over a decade, arriving at road.cc via 220 Triathlon Magazine in 2017. He worked across all areas of the website including tech, news and video, and also contributed to eBikeTips before being named Editor of road.cc in 2021 (much to his surprise). Jack has been hooked on cycling since his student days, and currently has a Trek 1.2 for winter riding, a beloved Bickerton folding bike for getting around town and an extra beloved custom Ridley Helium SLX for fantasising about going fast in his stable. Jack has never won a bike race, but does have a master's degree in print journalism and two Guinness World Records for pogo sticking (it's a long story).

Quite a good looking cycle lane to get you over the M49, though… (at least, I think that's what it is - from the north on your map, then looping...

Nice team too. 11th overall! I didn't pick Narvaez...

I ride quite a bit in Italy too, and the drivers are every bit as dangerous as in the UK. Close passing is terrible....
