*IRM stands for Lauf’s Impact Resistant Modulus carbon fiber layup. We like to achieve our low frame weights through careful shape and layup designs combined with good manufacturing methods, rather than using more brittle high-modulus or intermediate-modulus carbon fibers. We believe a carbon gravel bike frame should not just be light, it should also be strong. Lauf frames represent our preferred combination of the two. *Specs may change without notice. Components may be exchanged with same level or higher level components.
The Anywhere is made of carbon and, of course, designed in-house at Lauf. On top of that, it's the chief of mixed-terrain. Whether it's hammering the pavement with a dash of gravel or heading into the wild loaded with bags - just going anywhere. The Anywhere eats vibrations from the road and smoothies the hits on the gravel - all thanks to the Lauf Smoothie handlebar we developed for the bike – just ride!

The Anywhere is (bike-) packed with great features designed for a menu of mixed terrain. Jump out the door, grind your way through or load it up and head anywhere you want. In case you forgot - we made sure it has a bottle opener.
The Lauf Smoothie handlebar eats vibrations for breakfast, isolating you from the hum of the road. Flex where you need it the most, in the hoods and the drops. Utilising the same tough and flexible material we us in the springs on our forks the Smoothie is lightweight, yet strong as an ox. The shape takes full advantage of the flared drops. Since flared drops are easy to access, we made the ramps longer (thus top corners sharper) for an extra palm position further behind the hoods. Giving you an additional relaxed position for longer rides.
We’re known for our leaf spring suspension forks but for this bike we chose to put on Just A Fork (JAF). It’s normally light at 395g with triple cage-mounts each side.
The long toptube paired with a short-ish stem, low headtube and a slack head angle give you a low and aerodynamic position with great stability at high speeds and in rough terrain. Making you Long 4 Speed.
The Anywhere is delivered on high volume semi-slick tires perfect for hammering pavement to gravel. But make no mistake, the Anywhere takes up to 45mm 700c tires - big and chunky for rougher gravel roads with plenty of room for the elements. Add studs and you’re still good to go!
The Beer Or Gear front derailleur design opens up endless possibilities. We know most Anywhere riders are going to want the robustness and simplicity of 1x drivetrains. Naturally they'll get a bottle opener where a front derailleur would otherwise be. But don't worry, you can still put on a 2x system as long as it's wireless.
With In-N-Out Cabling, the rear derailleur cable and rear disc brake hose have entry points at the headtube, then they miraculously pop out at the optimal locations. No hassle and no annoying rattling inside the frame. Some might call it voodoo but we call it Lauf’ing Out Loud engineering.
Three bottle mounts come in handy for a long day in the saddle. On top of that the top tube has mounts for a bento box for easy access to food or other smaller items on the long haul.
For the tried and tested ease of maintenance and creak free riding. It costs more to produce, but it's worth it!
The Lauf Anywhere gravel frame has undergone serious testing as it meets the ISO standard for mountain bike frames. This makes for a sturdy frame that handles all the fun at only 1.070g - Medium frame, including front and rear derailleur hangers.
The headtube is tapered (1.125” to 1.5”) for improved strength and control.
By using advanced molding technologies, bonded junctions are avoided and internal surfaces are kept smooth. Resulting in longer continuous carbon fibers and less unwanted material overlap. Thus a stronger and more efficient frame.
