NS Bikes RAG+ 3 Raw Gravel Bike


The NS Bikes RAG+ 3 Raw is a versatile drop-bar bike built for riders who want one bicycle capable of handling paved roads, gravel, commuting, fitness riding, and longer mixed-surface adventures. Its lightweight AL6061-T6 aluminum frame combines modern gravel features with the practical simplicity of a 1x11 drivetrain.


The RAG+ 3 uses thru-axles, mechanical disc brakes, wide 700C gravel tires, and tubeless-ready wheels to create a stable and adaptable platform. Its generous tire clearance also allows riders to switch between narrower road tires and larger gravel or 650B setups depending on how and where they ride.


Key Features


  • Lightweight AL6061-T6 custom-formed and butted aluminum frame

  • Raw finish

  • NS Bikes Gravel+ alloy fork

  • Front and rear thru-axles

  • SRAM Apex 1x11-speed drivetrain

  • Wide-range 11-42T cassette

  • Tektro MD-C510 mechanical disc brakes

  • 160 mm front and rear rotors

  • WTB Riddler 700 x 45C tires

  • Tubeless-ready NS Bikes Gravel+ wheels

  • Clearance for 700C gravel tires and 650B tires up to 2.2 inches

  • Multiple mounting points for commuting and adventure equipment

  • Available in S, M, L, and XL sizes


A True Road and Gravel All-Rounder


The RAG+ name comes from Road & Gravel, with the “+” representing the bike's ability to go beyond a conventional road or gravel setup.


The RAG+ 3 can be equipped with standard 700C road tires for faster pavement riding, wider gravel tires for unpaved roads, or 650B wheels with larger-volume tires for additional comfort and traction. This makes it suitable for everything from daily commuting to recreational gravel rides and longer adventures.


NS Bikes also positions the RAG+ platform for applications such as amateur cyclocross, fitness riding, and bikepacking.


Lightweight Aluminum Frame


The frame is constructed from AL6061-T6 custom-formed and butted aluminum tubes. It uses an integrated tapered head tube and 142 x 12 mm rear dropouts for a modern gravel-bike configuration.


The frame's revised geometry uses a taller head tube, longer reach, and slacker head angle than earlier RAG generations. These changes are intended to provide a more stable and comfortable riding position while retaining a relatively sporty feel.


A removable rear derailleur hanger is included, and the frame uses a PF 86.5 bottom bracket.


NS Bikes Gravel+ Alloy Fork


At the front, the bike uses an NS Bikes Gravel+ alloy fork with a 15 mm thru-axle. The fork has a 400 mm axle-to-crown dimension and is designed around the RAG+ platform.


The combination of front and rear thru-axles gives the wheels a secure connection to the frame and fork, which is useful when riding rough gravel and carrying additional equipment.


SRAM Apex 1x11 Drivetrain


The RAG+ 3 uses a SRAM Apex 11-speed drivetrain with a single front chainring. The 42T crankset is paired with a Microshift CS-H113 11-42T cassette, providing a wide enough range for both everyday road riding and moderate climbs.


Using a single chainring also removes the need for a front derailleur and simplifies shifting.


Drivetrain Components


  • SRAM Apex 11-speed shifter

  • SRAM Apex Type 2.1 long-cage rear derailleur

  • FSA Omega 42T crankset

  • Microshift CS-H113 11-42T cassette

  • SRAM 11-speed chain

  • FSA PF 86.5 bottom bracket


The crank length varies by frame size, with NS Bikes specifying 170 mm for S, 172.5 mm for M, and 175 mm for L.


Mechanical Disc Braking


The RAG+ 3 is equipped with Tektro MD-C510 mechanical disc brakes using 160 mm rotors at both the front and rear.


Mechanical disc brakes offer a relatively straightforward setup and maintenance approach while providing consistent stopping performance for road and gravel riding.


700C Wheels and WTB Riddler Tires


The bike comes with NS Bikes Gravel+ 700C rims using 32 spokes and a tubeless-ready design. The front hub uses a 100 x 15 mm thru-axle, while the rear uses a 142 x 12 mm thru-axle.


The supplied WTB Riddler 700 x 45C tires provide substantial tire volume for gravel and mixed surfaces while retaining the efficient rolling characteristics of a 700C wheel.


The frame is designed to accommodate up to 700C x 40 mm or 650B x 2.2-inch tires according to NS Bikes' frame specification. Because the supplied Riddler tires are listed as 700 x 45C, buyers should distinguish between the manufacturer's listed complete-bike tire specification and its stated frame-clearance recommendation.


Gravel-Oriented Cockpit


The RAG+ 3 uses an NS Flare 31.8 handlebar, with width varying by frame size. Its flared shape is intended to provide additional control on uneven surfaces.


The NS Bikes RAG+ stem is also size-specific and uses a reversible -7°/+7° configuration, allowing riders to adjust the handlebar position to suit their preferred riding posture.


Raw Finish


The Raw finish gives the RAG+ 3 a clean, industrial appearance that highlights the bike's frame construction. The underlying frame and component specification remain focused on practical gravel and mixed-surface riding rather than cosmetic features.
