LIV DEVOTE ADVANCED SL 2
Gravel racing is evolving fast, and so are the athletes driving it. The Devote Advanced SL is built for women who race with intent, where speed, strategy, and endurance define the outcome. Developed with direct input from pro riders, it’s engineered to deliver efficiency over distance, control at race pace, and performance without compromise. From long solo efforts to tactical pack moves and sprint finishes, this is a platform for riders who come to shape the race, not just finish it.
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
- Carry Speed: The new Advanced SL-grade composite frame and fork bring the highest-level carbon construction to the Devote, built to snap into action the second you kick and stay efficient deep into race efforts. When the descent gets loose and control becomes critical, the updated OverDrive system keeps steering razor-sharp, while the D-Fuse seatpost adds controlled compliance to reduce fatigue without compromising power transfer
- Keep Momentum: Aero tube shaping, integrated cable routing, wheel integration, and tire selection are engineered together as a complete race system to help you waste less energy when the course turns rough, exposed, and fast. Reduced drag, lower rolling resistance, and improved stability help maintain momentum when the pace keeps lifting and headwinds start grinding you down. Wind tunnel testing with Liv’s “Georgia” mannequin validates aerodynamic performance around how women race, improving efficiency during solo moves, fast pack dynamics, and long stretches spent fighting the wind.
- Hold Lines: Race-focused geometry puts you lower, farther forward, and more centered over the bike for an efficient position when speeds stay high and the terrain turns rough, loose, and unpredictable. A longer front-center and wheelbase improve stability without dulling steering response, while a steeper head tube angle and reduced trail sharpen front-end handling when corners blow out and the race starts getting sketchy. Optimized around modern 45mm gravel race tires, with clearance for up to 53mm, you can balance rolling speed, grip, and control across everything from fast hardpack sectors to rough, technical terrain.

WEIGHT: THE MOST ACCURATE WAY TO DETERMINE ANY BIKE’S WEIGHT IS TO HAVE YOUR LOCAL DEALER WEIGH IT FOR YOU. MANY BRANDS STRIVE TO LIST THE LOWEST POSSIBLE WEIGHT, BUT IN REALITY WEIGHT CAN VARY BASED ON SIZE, FINISH, HARDWARE AND ACCESSORIES. ALL OUR BIKES ARE DESIGNED FOR BEST-IN-CLASS WEIGHT AND RIDE QUALITY.
