The Gap XL is just that, an extra-large 21” toptube version of the tried-and-true Kink Gap. Featuring modern geometry, the frame, fork, and bars also add some 4130 chromoly into the mix . On the floor is the Gloss Desert Sand. Components found on the Gap XL take things up a notch and are not to be missed.
Not only will it look the part, the taller 9.25” Kink T925 bars, Kink Stryker forks, Kink Bold HRD stem, sealed Mission Engage cassette hub, and Kink Ridge 3-piece tubular chromoly cranks help it to feel and perform the part. The addition of a Stealth seat and seat post are not to be overlooked either and add both adjustability and modern compatibility. Modern frame geometry brings a lower bottom bracket and raised standover height to the Gap XL, for a stable ride. This is a great ride for a rider with a height between 5′ 9″ -6′ 3″.
The 2023 Launch continues the legacy of a truly remarkable bike. This bike is still one of the best value priced models in the market, year after year. The Launch is equipped with both a sealed integrated headset and sealed Mid bottom bracket, which drastically improves performance and virtually eliminates maintenance of these components. Combined with a parts package that includes Kink Stryker forks, Kink T875 8.75” bars, and Mission Triumph 3pc tubular chromoly cranks, this bike is a new rider’s dream. The 20.25″ top tube makes this another great choice for the taller rider.
