Sea Otter Classic 2017: Sneak preview of the Breezer Doppler gravel bike
At Sea Otter Classic this year, Breezer was showing off a new gravel bike that will be available for 2018.
The Doppler bridges the gap between Breezer’s two current drop-bar adventure bikes, the Inversion, and the Radar. The Inversion is an all-road model while the Radar is more dirt oriented with 29 x 2.1-inch mountain bike tires.
The Doppler is designed for road, gravel, and dirt touring and randonneuring, featuring tubeless-ready 27.5-inch wheels with stainless fenders, rack mounts, and disc brakes.
There will be three different models available. The top two will be spec’d with traditional drop bars and Shimano Ultegra or Tiagra. The model pictured, called the Doppler Cafe, will feature SRAM Apex 1×11 and a 680 mm wide sweeper bar.
Pricing for the Doppler will hit under $900, while the Ultegra-equipped Doppler Team will roll out at just under $2,000 and the Doppler Pro with Tiagra 10 speed will come in at around $1250.
All models will be available this coming fall.
