The Gorilla Monsoon is your ultimate companion for conquering gravel roads, doubletrack trails, bikepacking journeys, and any off-road escapade where versatility meets endurance. Built on All-City’s legendary 612 Select steel tubing, this adventure-ready machine blends power and precision into every ride while maintaining a smooth ride quality that keeps you comfortable even after hours in the saddle.

Designed for riders who crave both speed and stability, the Gorilla Monsoon accommodates 27.5-inch tires up to 2.4” thick while still leaving room for 700c wheels paired with 42mm-wide rubber, offering unmatched adaptability whether you’re racing gravel events or exploring remote backcountry paths. Flat-mount disc brakes deliver reliable stopping power in all conditions, while three integrated bottle mounts ensure you’re never caught short on hydration during extended adventures or daily commutes over rough terrain.
