Welcome to the inaugural MADE Show in Portland, Oregon. We’ve gathered some of our favorite gravel bikes at the MADE Bike Show 2023, with bikes from builders like Argonaut, Framework Bicycles, Onguza, Seeker, Flux Customs, and others.

While this collection is still centered around drop bar bikes, this time it leans toward the ever-popular gravel and all-road scenes so prevalent here. The founder of custom carbon company McGovern Cycles launching a line of steel bikes through Seeker, with stock geometries ready to go two weeks from order times. Onguza comes from the mind of former pro cyclist Dan Craven, who brought world-class frame construction from his home in Namibia. Framework Bicycles brought one of the most technically impressive bikes I’ve seen in years in a sea of true standouts. And as you’d imagine, there are a whole lot more gravel bikes at the Made Bike show that caught my eye.
