GO GRAVEL!

Gravel is getting faster and so are the women at the front of the race.

The Devote Advanced SL is engineered to respond when the pace explodes and the pack starts to splinter. Developed with direct input from Liv Racing Collective privateers, it delivers efficiency over distance, control at race pace, and performance without compromise.

From long solo efforts to tactical moves and sprint finishes, this is a gravel race platform built for riders chasing every advantage.

COMPLETE GRAVEL RACE SYSTEM

The future of gravel racing requires a new approach. The Devote Advanced SL was developed as a complete race system, integrating frame shaping, cockpit, wheels, tires, and rider position to help riders save energy, stay in control, and keep pushing when the course pushes back.

Developing the most race-focused Devote yet meant looking beyond individual gains. Tested against the previous flagship Devote Advanced Pro system, the Devote Advanced SL 0 delivers measurable improvements where gravel races are won — reducing weight, increasing efficiency, and saving energy over demanding race efforts.

297g lighter complete system
Stay efficient when climbs bite, terrain fights back, and every gram counts.
25% improved pedaling stiffness-to-weight efficiency
Respond faster when the pace surges, attacks launch, and the race starts to break apart.
20.03 watts total system savings
Save energy through headwinds, solo efforts, and relentless race conditions.

Carry Speed

Attacks launch. Climbs bite. The pace changes without warning. The Devote Advanced SL is engineered to respond instantly, helping you accelerate, conserve energy, and stay ready for the next more.

Devote Advanced SL Frame
ADVANCED SL COMPOSITE FRAME + FORK
When every gram and every effort matters, only our highest-performance composite technology would do. Advanced SL-grade carbon construction delivers the lightweight efficiency and stiffness needed to respond when the race is on.
Devote Advanced SL Overdrive
OVERDRIVE
Fast gravel gets unpredictable. OverDrive increases front-end stiffness for precise steering response, helping you hold your line through loose corners, rough descents, and split-second race decisions.
Devote Advanced SL D-Fuse Seatpost
D-FUSE SEATPOST
Gravel is relentless. D-Fuse technology helps absorb vibration and reduce fatigue, so you can stay comfortable, efficient, and committed deep into the effort.

KEEP MOMENTUM

Gravel racing rewards more than raw power. It’s knowing how to protect your effort through hours of wind, speed, and changing terrain. The Devote Advanced SL reduces resistance and minimizes wasted energy, helping you stay efficient when the race demands more.

Devote Advanced SL Aerosystem Shaping
AEROSYSTEM SHAPING
Aero tube profiles across the frame, fork, and cockpit reduce drag to help conserve energy over long gravel race efforts.
Liv Devote Advanced SL Handlebars
LIV CONTACT SLR XR INTEGRATED HANDLEBAR
The new one-piece aero cockpit improves integration and provides ergonomic control across changing race conditions.
Liv Devote Advanced SL Wheelsystem
WHEELSYSTEM + TIRE OPTIMIZATION
New CADEX and Giant WheelSystems paired with race-optimized tires reduce rolling resistance and help maintain momentum across demanding terrain.

HOLD LINES

Speed only matters if you can control it. When corners loosen, descents get rough, and terrain changes without warning, the Devote Advanced SL balances stability and precision so you can trust your line and stay committed.

RACE-FOCUSED GEOMETRY
A lower stack and longer reach put riders in position to push the pace, while a longer wheelbase, steeper head tube angle, and reduced trail balance stability and precision.

45MM RACE TIRE OPTIMIZATION
Optimized around 45mm gravel race tires for the speed, grip, and control needed to charge rough sections and stay committed through changing terrain—with clearance up to 53mm.

RACE-READY INTEGRATION
Integrated storage and computer mounts keep race essentials secure and ride data in sight, keeping your setup dialed and your focus locked on the race ahead.

TESTING BUILT AROUND WOMEN

Gravel racing has changed. The speeds are higher, the fields are stronger, and every watt matters more than ever. As aerodynamics became part of the gravel race conversation, Liv didn’t just follow the data — we changed how it was collected.

Meet Georgia: a next-generation wind-tunnel mannequin developed around female body dimensions to test what actually matters — the rider and bike working together. With realistic torso shaping and dynamic pedaling motion, Georgia helps engineers understand how airflow moves around the complete system, not just the frame.

Because race-day speed isn’t created in isolation. It’s built around the rider.

TESTING & RESULTS

ATHLETE TESTED. RACE PROVEN.

The Devote Advanced SL was shaped alongside the women redefining what gravel racing demands. From early development samples tested by Liv Gravel & Off-Road Category Manager Ludi Scholz to race insights from Liv Racing Collective privateers, every decision was guided by the riders pushing the pace at the highest level.

Their feedback helped refine the details that matter when racing gets unpredictable — responsive acceleration, confident handling, efficient positioning, and the ability to stay committed long after the course starts wearing riders down.

MEET THE ATHLETES

Tess riding the new Devote

"The new Liv Devote prototype is truly my dream bike. It’s incredibly stiff, lightweight, and carries so much speed. I gave detailed feedback on what my ideal race gravel bike should be, and this bike delivers on every point. I couldn’t be happier with it."

-Tess Neefies, Liv Racing Collective
