Big trade shows like Eurobike and Sea Otter are a great place to see the latest and greatest tech in the bike world. However, rarely do I leave those shows feeling genuinely surprised at what I’ve seen.
With its abundance of small frame builders and brands showing off fully custom or limited-run frames, usually sporting custom paint, the Philly Bike Expo has surprises around every corner.
Here are some of the best road and gravel bikes I saw at the 2024 show. Be sure to stay tuned this week for more bike galleries from the show!
