A True All-Road Bike, Not a Compromise

Men’s Health framed the Priority 600 as a bike that defies rigid category labels. Rather than locking it into “gravel” or “road,” editors placed it firmly in the all-road camp—ideal for riders who want one bike that can handle city streets, mixed terrain, and longer recreational rides.

During testing, the Priority 600 proved equally capable as:

  • A daily commuter
  • A weekend road rider
  • A gravel-curious explorer who doesn’t want a second bike

That flexibility is exactly what earned it the top all-road distinction.

Smooth, Confident Performance Across Surfaces

Men’s Health called out the Priority 600’s smooth gear system and strong, wide tires as key contributors to its go-anywhere feel. The bike’s 650b wheels paired with wide WTB tires allow it to roll efficiently on pavement while maintaining comfort and control on gravel and rougher roads.

Editors noted that the transition from tarmac to gravel felt natural and predictable—no drama, no fuss.

Low Maintenance That Makes Riding Easier

A major theme of the Men’s Health review was simplicity. The Priority 600’s carbon-fiber-reinforced Gates belt drive and 12-speed internally geared Pinion gearbox eliminate many of the traditional pain points of bike ownership.

With no exposed chain or derailleur to tune, the drivetrain stays clean, quiet, and reliable—making the bike especially appealing for commuters and riders who want to spend their time riding, not wrenching.

A Smart Pick for Commuters and Recreational Riders Alike

Men’s Health also highlighted the Priority 600 as an excellent bike for commuters, noting how easily it pulls double duty. Whether it’s weekday rides to work or weekend miles outside the city, the bike’s design supports consistent use across seasons and conditions.

That dual-purpose nature—commute during the week, explore on the weekend—is exactly what defines a great all-road bike.

Why the Priority 600 Earned the All-Road Title

Among dozens of bikes tested, the Priority 600 stood out by doing everything well without asking riders to specialize. It doesn’t chase ultra-light road specs or aggressive gravel geometry. Instead, it delivers reliability, comfort, and versatility in a package that’s easy to live with.

According to Men’s Health, that balance makes the Priority 600 one of the best all-road bikes you can buy in 2024.
