Ducati Futa All-Road: evolving to enter the electric gravel segment

Gravel biking continues to gain followers and fewer brands are without a model in their showcases. Ducati - a renowned motorcycle manufacturer enjoying success in MotoGP in recent times - had previously dipped its toes into cycling on several occasions. The Italian brand's catalog included the electric road bike Futa and various electric mountain bike models. Now, they are preparing to enter the electric gravel segment with the arrival of the Futa All-Road.

The Futa All-Road is the gravel version of the Futa road bike. The name they have given to their creation pays homage to the Passo della Futa, a mountain pass known among Italian cyclists that connects Bologna - the manufacturer's headquarters - with Florence. The model is designed for long rides on asphalt and trails and features visible carbon and some parts painted in the characteristic Ducati red.

The monocoque carbon frame has a sporty endurance geometry that avoids risky bets. The brand highlights efforts to achieve a good level of aerodynamics without compromising the rider's comfort; the compact design of the seatstays has contributed to that comfort.

The electric components are powered by an FSA System HM 1.0 hub motor with 250 W and 42 Nm of torque with five assistance modes. The battery is housed in the downtube and has a capacity of 250 Wh, although Ducati also offers an extender to increase this figure by another 250 Wh.

The Futa All-Road comes equipped with the SRAM Rival eTap AXS groupset; meaning it offers a wireless electronic 2x12-speed shifting system and 160 mm hydraulic disc brakes.

Additionally, it also comes with a FSA K-WING AGX Carbon gravel handlebar, integrated cabling, Vittoria Terreno Dry 38 mm front and 35 mm rear tires, and Vision AGX 30 wheels with carbon fiber rims.

Ducati includes a set of backpacks consisting of three Skuad bags for the saddle, handlebar, and frame, made with waterproof fabric.
