In E26, I chat with Felt Bike's newest Gravel Pro, Travis McCabe. Travis is an American former professional cyclist, who rode professionally between 2013 and 2020, for the Team SmartStop, Holowesko Citadel Racing Team, UnitedHealthcare, Floyd's Pro Cycling and Israel Start-Up Nation teams.
I met up with Travis shortly after he made the announcement that he signed with Felt Bikes, and would be turning his sights to the gravel scene. Travis joins a very long list of ex-road pros who have turned to the gravel scene. Other notable pros: Ted King, Peter Stetina, Colin Strickland, and TJ Eisenhart.
Travis currently rides for: Felt Bikes, Shimano Gravel, FSA, First Endurance
