Carbon All-Road V2 - Dusty Merlot
The Carbon All-Road V2 took State Bicycle Co.'s carbon gravel bike into its second version, and Dusty Merlot was one of its colorways, introduced in 2025 and retired in August 2026. The V2 paired lightweight carbon with a progressive geometry meant to be fast and stable for trails, gravel races, or bikepacking. New for V2 were UDH compatibility, internal routing through the frame and fork with external routing at the cockpit for easier service, and a downtube storage box and bag with a Fidlock magnetic closure. It ran a 40t direct-mount chainring on tubeless-capable State wheels, with 50mm Vittoria T50 tires on 700c or 47c Vittoria Terreno Dry on 650b.
